Bookroo's summary
Elana, from an advanced civilization, faces a dilemma on a medieval planet. Tasked with stopping an invasion, she must conceal her alien abilities while aiding the superstitious Andrecians. Meanwhile, Georyn, a woodcutter's son, believes he must slay a dragon to prove his worth, seeing Elana as a mystical test. Can Elana balance her mission and Georyn's beliefs without exposing her true nature? This tale of science fiction and fantasy explores the clash of worlds and the power of belief.
From the publisher
Elana, a member of an interstellar civilization on a mission to a medieval planet, becomes the key to a dangerous plan to turn back an invasion. How can she help the Andrecians, who still believe in magic and superstition, without revealing her own alien powers? At the same time, Georyn, the son of an Andrecian woodcutter, knows only that there is a dragon in the enchanted forest, and he must defeat it. He sees Elana as the Enchantress from the Stars who has come to test him, to prove he is worthy. One of the few science fiction books to win a Newbery Honor, this novel will enthrall teenage and adult readers.
