Book Description
It is said that when a mage is born in Dageis, the whole world rejoices. Everywhere else, the world mourns. Born outside the affluent empire, Ylir yn Ferral and Sume Kaggawa's daughter might just be one of the most agan-gifted child the continent has seen. But without her father's coin and influence, the girl is a walking disaster. Raised by her uncle Kefier, she is a beacon which attracts the power-hungry to the fray--just like the monster her father and his ilk remain obsessed with. Sume, Kefier, and even Ylir must reckon with the part their family is starting to play in the grand scheme of things--or lose everything in the blink of an eye.

Book Description
Blood magic is cheating. The tables have turned. Unbeknownst to the people of Dageis, their emperor is a puppet, controlled by an outlaw kept under the strict watch of the mage council's Firekeeper. Only Rosha knows it won't last long. Her powers are slipping. To hold up her disguise, she has turned to the legacy of her forefathers: the dangerous, mysterious, reviled blood magic. Long practiced by her people, it has been dismissed by the empire's mages as savage and unstable. But other mages have caught on to the allure of power that lay within the forbidden and the secret hidden inside the very bodies of Rosha's kin. It is now up to Rosha and her friends to save her people from a past that continues to haunt them and a future in which they have no place, even if it means treading the line between sanity and self-destruction. With her own secrets unraveling, Rosha has nowhere left to turn but deep within herself as she has to make the decision between embracing the people she has tried to run from and becoming the monster the history books warned she could be.
