The Glasswrights' Apprentice. By Mindy L. Klasky
If you want to be safe... mind your caste.
In a kingdom where all is measured by birthright, moving up in society is almost impossible. Which is why young Rani Trader's merchant family sacrifices nearly everything to buy their daughter an apprenticeship in the Glasswrights' Guild - where honor and glory will be within her reach.
