The wind singer is an excellent book about a town named Aramanth, ruled under exams.The town is set out in districts, which all depends on your family rating. When you are a baby you take a test and your score goes on your family rating, and so on through out the rest of your life.
But Kestrel, member of the Hath family will not put up with these exams for much longer. She and her brother Bowman are now on the quest to find the voice of the wind singer. Because, once the wind singer sings everyone will be happy; no more exams or districts, no more family ratings.
The wind singer is a structe built many years before the children, but when the emporer give Kestrel a map to find the voice she takes the challenge up willingly.
I thouroughly enjoyed the book. It was a thrill to read. Definatly one of my favourites.
