About this ebook

Anne de Vernase rejoices that she has no talent for magic. But she is dismayed to learn the king intends to barter her hand in marriage. Anne recognizes that the summoning carries implications far beyond her bleak future. And a murder in the queen's inner circle convinces Anne that her young sister's magical death wasn't accidental.

With no one to trust, Anne must take on her sister's legacy to discover the truth-thrusting herself into a centuries-old struggle that could forever alter the boundaries of magic, nature, and the divine.

Ratings and reviews

I picked up book one from the library from their recycled books for .25 and was hooked. Started this one up, was a bit slow at firstbut in the end I couldn't put it down. That ending was satisfying beyond reason.
