![]() Neverfell is not like the other inhabitants of Caverna, for her face shows exactly what she is feeling and thinking, being unable to lie in a world where everything is built on lies. The book follows Neverfell, the apprentice and adopted daughter of the cheesemaker Grandible, as she becomes entangled in a net of conspiracies and betrayal. Citizens born in Caverna have no problems feeling emotions but lack the ability to display them on their faces, and must be taught each expression by craftsmen known as facesmiths. In the underground city of Caverna, craftsmen are able to create items with magical properties, such as cheese that gives you visions of the future, a wine that can remove or restore memory, or perfumes that can control the thoughts of whoever detects it. It is the 5th novel by Hardinge and was short-listed for the 2013 Kitschies award. ![]() ![]() 2012 fantasy adventure novel by Frances Hardinge A Face Like GlassĪ Face Like Glass is a 2012 fantasy adventure novel by Frances Hardinge. ![]()
