Abstract

Set in the world of The Obsidian Kingdom, ruled by four warring factions of magic, this novel examines how we find strength within ourselves. Kyan Batari is a fierce, young magician from the Earth Kingdom. Kyan has lost her family, and her kingdom has lost its power. Raised as an orphan, Kyan finds comfort in ghostly voices that have visited her since she was a child. When Kyan crosses paths with Prince Bryson from an enemy kingdom, she believes that she will have to work to avenge her parents' death for the rest of her life. Bryson is grappling with his own fears about where he came from and what would happen if his forbidden magic were discovered. Kyan and Bryson have more in common than they believed possible when untapped power surfaces in the capital. As Kyan tries to find her place within the Obsidian Kingdom, she must face the ultimate trial of whether to trust her head or her heart.
