Short description
Some kids go to another country after graduating from high school. Marie is going to another dimension.Extended description
Marie Nettleson thinks she has finally found a way to escape her heritage when extraordinary circumstances give her a place on Earth’s first expedition to an alternate dimension. Just weeks after graduating from high school, Marie finds herself in Maretzia, a land whose culture is as luxurious as it is brutal. Ruled by the mysterious Emperor Sidriel, Maretzia both fascinates and frightens Marie. However, as time passes in Sidriel’s court, Marie not only begins to doubt the sincerity of Sidriel’s advisors, but the sincerity of her fellow expedition members as well, and the more she learns, the more she wonders if she was ever meant to leave Maretzia…alive.Tags

on Nov. 18, 2012 :
I not a fan of YA. It's usually too sappy and self-involved. I thought Across, By Elizabeth Edson was going to be like that at first. But after I got through the first few chapters, I was hooked. The world is well developed, the characters are well-drawn, the writing is smooth, and, most of all, the plot with its interesting twist is very satisfying. Congratulations, Elizabeth. I'm looking forward to your next book.
