Fantasy
In a realm on the brink of war, will an unsuspected heir to
the kingdom of Coronnan and to magic long-banished from the
land offer the only hope for survival? Glenndon--son of
witchwoman Brevelan and Jaylor, Senior Magician and
Chancellor of the University of Magicians--has never spoken
aloud. He has no need because his telepathic talent is
strong and everyone associated with the University can
"hear" him. He can throw master-level spells, but because he
will not speak, Jaylor has refused to promote him from
apprentice to journeyman magician. Still, everyone knows it
is only a matter of time until Glenndon will take his
rightful place at the University. Then an urgent missive
arrives from King Darville. The Council of Provinces is near
rebellion over the king's lack of a male heir. Rather than
see his fourteen-year-old daughter, Rosselinda, married off
just to procure an heir, he orders his illegitimate son
Glenndon to Coronnan City to become his successor. And
suddenly Glenndon's world is in chaos. The man he's always
known as his father is not. Instead he is the son of the
king. But in this city where court politics can prove deadly
and where magic is forbidden, the young man must hide his
talents even as he struggles to find his voice and his
destiny. And one slip could see Glenndon, Darville,
Rosselinda, and even Jaylor doomed, for the lords and the
people fear magic more than potential invasion, legendary
monsters, and civil war.
