An enchanting underground world hides sinister secrets in A Face Like Glass, a YA fantasy from award-winning author Frances Hardinge. An ALA/ALSC Notable Children’s Book In the underground city of Caverna, the world’s most skilled craftspeople toil in the darkness to create delicacies beyond compare—wines that remove memories, cheeses that make you hallucinate, and perfumes that convince you to trust the wearer, even as he slits your throat. On the surface, the people of Caverna seem ordinary, except for one thing: Their faces are as blank as untouched snow.
