With the help of her magic powers, shes so far been able to escape the notice of the city police. But a strange man with powers more terrifying than her own threatens to expose her secrets. And shes not the only one whose life threatens the strange figure threatens to upend. Start reading this incredible addition to the epic fantasy canon. For fans of Brandon Sanderson, Brent Weeks, and Brian McClellan. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography David Mealing grew up adoring all things fantasy.
