Peasprout Chen is small, brave, and determined to become a champion skater in a city where blades and honor define a person. When she earns a place at the prestigious Scholastic Wheel, she must master both daring skate techniques and the rigid code of martial discipline. Wrestling with her size, her family's expectations, and the weight of a hidden past, Peasprout forges unlikely friendships and faces rivals who test her skill and heart. Training becomes a crucible that refines more than talent: it forces Peasprout to reconcile the playful joy that drew her to skating with the grim politics embedded in competition. As she pushes the boundaries of speed and grace, a dangerous conspiracy looms on the edges of the arena, threatening everyone she cares about. Peasprout must choose what kind of legend she will become—one who wins trophies, or one who protects the people she loves.
