Publisher's Synopsis
Enter a world where magic divides families, a criminal prince defends the magicless, and a hero's daughter seeks to undo her father's legacy in this thrilling new fantasy, perfect for fans of Brigid Kemmerer or Melissa de la Cruz.
In the region of Fauster, magic donated by gifted Abnormals is used to fuel countless magitech inventions, but there isn't enough power to go around. While the High Court further restricts her freedom with each piece of legislation aimed to resolve the power predicament, sixteen-year-old Rina Willow pretends she is nothing but the law-abiding daughter of a famous guardian who sacrificed his mind to save Fauster. But after a mysterious man reveals his knowledge of her clandestine mission, she's left with a call to arms that might not be safe to answer.
Meanwhile, living in the caves beneath Rina's feet is a young man rumored to perform miracles without magic. Working in the shadows, the Heathen Prince tries to save as many magicless souls as possible before the High Court catches him.
When Rina and the Heathen Prince's quests collide, they discover they have a common enemy, one who doesn't want to see Normals rise. Not in this lifetime or any other.
Welcome to a fantastical new series where magic always comes at a cost, and power is wielded like a blade, cutting down everyone in its path.
