Iss, a humble kitchen slave who likes to tell stories, finds herself caught up in perhaps the greatest story of them all. Little does she imagine when she stumbles on the small rebellion of Seffish, Crith, and the other dance-fighters she admires so much, how far that rebellion will spread. An ordinary soul caught up in extraordinary events, Iss soon finds herself at the heart of an uprising that threatens to overthrow the social order and reshape a world. Set on a strictly hierarchical Mars, Una McCormack’s The Greatest Story Ever Told is a breathless, stirring tale of bravery, love, passion, and the desire to be free.
