Strange changes are taking place in Village. Once a utopian community that prided itself on its welcome to new strangers, Village will soon be closed to all outsiders. As one of the few people able to travel through the dangerous Forest, Matty must deliver the message of Village’s closing and try to convince Seer’s daughter to return with him before it’s too late. But Forest has become hostile to Matty as well, and he must risk everything to fight his way through it, armed only with an emerging power he cannot yet explain or understand.
Well written, descriptive, engrossing and thought-provoking. A mix of post-apocolyptic and fantasy. There are mentions of Shakespeare, but the forest has a spirit. A sort of story of Utopia gone wrong when people get greedy. A young man who has the power to heal and in the end gives his life to heal the forest.
A really good book, though I don't like when the hero dies at the end. He did save his puppy and the girl he loves though.
