A land recovering from war. An unknown power awakened. A choice that will alter the course of Elefrisia forever.Gemma Carpenter had no memory of her birth parents' murder eighteen years ago. Neither did she know about the ancient power in her possession. The power bound to her-the power she does not know how to control.But her ignorance was not enough to shield her from the servants of a malevolent ruler in the east-one who will stop at nothing to possess the ancient power. The same one responsible for her birth parents' deaths.With fierce warriors dogging her steps, Gemma flees her serene life with the help of her Scruff friend, Theo, and a brave young man who vows her safety-a stranger to Gemma who seems to know her past better than she does.Failure to keep the power out of the wrong hands could usher Elefrisia into an age of darkness unlike any before-one it may never recover from.On the run in the wilds of Elefrisia, will Gemma's future be nothing more than fleeing in fear, or will she find the strength to face the evil that haunts her?Full of magic and trials, this is perfect for fans of An Ember In The Ashes, Eregon, and Shadow And Bone.
