The Glass is set in a post-apocalyptic world where people now live in small isolated communities, and struggle for their survival. In one particular community the people have learned to value wisdom more than knowledge, for all the knowledge in the world had not saved people from their own foolishness. In a world where outsiders can, and sometimes do, prove to be a terrible threat, a young girl, Skala, arrives at the home of Yori Torkelson and his reluctant apprentice Dag. She is running for her life from a gang of men who have learned to survive by taking everything from others, often including their lives. This gang has already murdered her mother because their leader wants a small collection of artifacts from the past that her people had called the 'Sacred Things'. Skala knows where they are.
