Starweaver — Linda McNabb

"Say the runes in this order, without pausing." Zaine tensed. If he got it wrong, the entire world would shatter. He tried to tell himself that the world didn't have much longer anyway; and even if he failed it would be better than time just stopping - wouldn't it? *** After a long period of disruption Willow Castle has been rebuilt, and the country's ruler seems to have been chosen. But now the days seem unnaturally long. When the sky fills with shooting stars Princess Guyan provides the chilling answer - time is slowing down and will soon come to a complete standstill.
