Her mother would rather she found a husband. But her life is about to take a very unexpected turn.When the advances of a visiting Sachakan mage get violent, Tessia unconsciously taps unknown reserves of magic to defend herself. Lord Dakon, the local magician, takes Tessia under his wing as an apprentice.The long hours of study and self-discipline also offer more opportunities than she had ever hoped for, and an exciting new world opens up to her.

For great danger looms on the horizon for Tessia and her world.Praise for Trudi Canavan:“Epic, vivid and believable.” —Guardian“It’s easy to see why Trudi Canavan's novels so often make the bestseller lists.
