The Gracelings were tools of the kings, and no more.  They were not thought to be natural, and people who could avoid them did, in Monsea and in most of the six kingdoms as well.  No one wished the company of a Graceling.

    Fire! Oh, I want to read this so bad, since I absolutely adored Graceling. I'm glad to see a different view on Gracelings here.

    Here's my teaser- less with the magic, more with the horror.

    Oh I cannot tell if I should feel sorry for the Gracelings or not. Great teaser!

    Ah this sounds quite intriguing. I just bought Graceling from our book fair. Have to read it and get this next.

    I think I'm one of the few people left that hasn't even read Graceling yet!

    I never thought of a Graceling as being bad. Course I might change my mind if I ever manage to read it. Great teaser!
