I am shadow-blessed. I do not fear the light nor her wrath.
Syra Lunatici, a Luanthian blessed with shadow magic, learned early in life that her very existence was dangerous within the Solerian-ruled Kingdom of Tavari.
Since the night of The Cleansing, she has been forced to hide her identity, her silver hair, and the shadows that writhe in her blood.
She has worked for years to achieve her dreams of becoming a Potion Master to better care for the fellow Luanthians in the Old Quarter, but a chance encounter with a wounded man changes the course of her fate.
Thrust into a world of prophecy and adventure to find a cure for an illness that has plagued Tavari for a century, Syra must venture across unforgiving deserts and snowy forests with a group that includes the Solerian Prince Kairen and his loyal Captain of the KingsGuard, Roan Delmar.
Born Luanthian, now a Solerian Convert, Roan Delmar is dangerous and keen to uncover the hidden past that could be Syra’s undoing.
Will she be able to keep her true identity hidden in shadows and deceit or will the cleansing fire of the stake be Syra’s fate?
