Synopsis

To be born with magic is a death sentence...
Unless you're a Royal, of course.

Nineteen-year-old Lina's world comes crashing down around her when she discovers that the most powerful dark sorcerer the land of Nerahdis has ever seen, Rhydin, has come back to claim his place as emperor. In a world where Royals control the populace with their terrifying powers, possessing magic as a commoner is a death sentence. Lina's simple life as a farmer is changed forever when she is told that she is an Allyen, a sorceress of light, and the only thing standing between Rhydin and his evil intentions. With the help of her best friend, Rachel, her helpful neighbor, Sam, and the rogue Royal, Prince Frederick, Lina must do the unthinkable and learn to use her magic not only to save herself, but all of Nerahdis.

From the Back Cover

"Buildings began to collapse, falling over like people fainting and crumbling to pieces. Not a single brick was left on top of another. The mine began to choke out ink black smoke and spit fire, making horrific noises as it collapsed underneath us. Ice slid down my spine as a mile away I began to hear the castle bells ring louder than ever before. It was like thunder rolling down into the depths of the canyon, as if the great, heavy bronze bells themselves were about to be smashed in two."
