Alison Goodman's first novel - in a very special new edition! Seventeen-year-old Joss is a rebel and a student of time travel at the prestigious Centre for Neo-Historical Studies. This year for the first time the Centre has an alien student: Mavkel from the planet Choria. And Mavkel has chosen Joss of all people as his roommate and study partner. Then Mavkel gets sick. Joss quickly realizes that his will to live is draining away. The only way she can help Mavkel is by breaking the Centre's strictest rules - and that means going back in time to change history. This new Firebird edition of Alison Goodman's acclaimed first genre-bending adventure features a short story about Joss and Mav's after-book adventures originally published in Firebirds Rising.
