For generations, the Seven Prophets guided humanity. Using their visions of the future, they ended wars and united nations - until they disappeared 100 years ago.

As a dark new power begins to make war on the magically gifted, five souls are set on a collision course that will determine the fate of their world.

To do so, she’ll have to play loving daughter to the man who cast it—the man who’s hellbent on reshaping Caraza in his own image, no matter the cost.
