Discover the prophecy that started it all in this prequel to the The City of Ember- a modern-day classic with over 4 MILLION copies sold! Nickie will grow up to be one of the first citizens of the city of Ember. But for now, she is a girl who has just moved to the town of Yonwood. There, she discovers a place full of suspicion, where one citizen's visions of fire and destruction have turned everyone against each other. Eager to take her mind off her father's absence as he works on a mysterious government project, Nickie reads her great-grandfather's peculiar journals, spies on a reclusive neighbor who studies the heavens, and meets a strange boy who is fascinated with snakes- all while keeping an eye out for trouble.

    The condition of the book was similar to the pictures provided. I did notice some tears in the pages that weren’t visible in the pictures or mentioned in the description but it isn’t a big deal to me since the overall condition of the book is very good. The seller responded quickly to any inquiries I had. My book was packaged very well and it was shipped quickly. Overall I’m very happy with my purchase and will definitely be buying from this seller again in the future.

Item arrived well before the expected date which i was extremely happy with, the packaging was very well done and item was very well protected to prevent any damaging, the book was clearly brand new and as described, would recommend this seller!!

  • My book review of The Prophet of Yonwood

    The Prophet of Yonwood is book 3 of Jeanne Duprau's "The City of Ember" book series. She is a very good writer! I enjoyed reading book 3 and couldn't wait to receive book 4 ; in which I purchased when I was done reading The Prophet of Yonwood. If you want an adventure read her books!
