7th period Inferring/Predicting Singer in the Snow by Louise Marley

Hello class,

This week I am reading Singer in the Snow by Louise Marley. This is a science fiction story on Nevya, the ice planet. Here, warmth and sun is quite rare. In fact, summer only occurs once every five years. The daily light and heat, or quiru, comes from the energy of the Gifted. The Gifted are girls and boys who posses the gift of music. The Gifted have to go through years of training, mastering all of the levels, before they become Cantrixs and Cantors. The Singers, or Gifted in training, work on mastering their psi, music energy, and levels of healing, sleep, and finally quiru. Emle is a Singer in training, but since she can not, however, reach the second level, or master her psi. She is sent to a new city with the newly made Cantrix Mreen because of the Cantrix’s inability to speak. There she meets the hrussmaster, a man who neither her nor Mreen trust.

I think that Mreen and Emle will discover a dark secret in the new city about Axl, the hrussmaster, that might affect the entire planet of Nevya. The secret will require Emle’s flawed gift to prove itself useful, or will lead destruction to the world.

Thanks for reading,
