From the Back Cover

For generations the Kingdom of Trimera has stood as a barrier against the grinlo, a horde of monsters that hunt magic and seek to consume all of Reia. But Trimera is falling. The Kingdom of Trimera is under attack. For all of recorded history, the monstrous grinlo have unsuccessfully fought to expand their hunting territory into the lands of Reia. But a magical being has managed to gain control of them, and the usually simple-minded grinlo exhibit cunning well beyond their capabilities, transforming them into a formidable foe.Pria was born to be one of the most powerful leaders in Reia. Enlisted in the Lorien, she has studied magic for ten years before being given the most dangerous and important post in the land: her home of Trimera. As a high priestess, it is her sacred duty to protect all the peoples of Reia from the monsters of the Frontier--and to determine who is controlling the grinlo. Yet her position is far from secure. Despite her potential and strength, there are many who do not agree with her placement in Trimera--but with the grinlo encroaching on her homeland, Pria hopes to show them all what she is made of. The hope of Trimera, and all of Reia, lies in the hands of Pria. Hunted by a mysterious foe and scrutinized by the Lorien, will Pria be able to protect her family and home...or will the distraction of her loved ones in danger lead her down the road of disaster?
