Publisher's Synopsis
Once Chime had been the most promising mage in the land, feted and celebrated for her potential and future role in the kingdom.
Then Iris, her young competitor, made a stunning leap in skill and turned Chime's world upside down. Now no longer the most powerful, no longer promised to a prince- and still unable to harness her magic properly- Chime was set adrift. As was the new king's cousin- and former heir- Lord Muller.
Yet when the neighboring kingdom threatened war, Muller and Chime were tasked with uncovering the plot. Both were flawed, yet unwilling to accept a lesser destiny than they had once known. Could this quest be the opportunity for redemption- or would it lead them to their deaths?
Award-winning author Catherine Asaro, creator of The Skolian Empire, creates her first full-length fantasy novel in a world rich with magic and power. Fans who caught a glimpse of the kingdom of Aronsdale in "Moonglow" from the Charmed Destinies collection are delighted with the result!
