'Outcast' is a novel written by Rosemary Sutcliff. It was published in 1955 and is illustrated by Richard Kennedy.
I was surprised ,because when I read the back of the book,it didn't give away anything. And 'Outcast' is one of the fastest books I have ever read. I was literally eating it. :)
But,I will warn you. It is kinda a dark and depressing book, but the ending was WONDERFUL.
5 out of 5 stars. ENJOY! <3
