Science Fiction
Fantasy at its most enchanting: An original and absorbing
tale from a master storyteller about the profound effects of
a single life on the battle against ultimate evil It is Midsummer Day, the beginning of the year 700, in the
city of Benign. All the children born in the year 684
celebrate their joint sixteenth birthday by passing in front
of the statue of the blind goddess Caprice—but only one will
become the Chosen and join the Seventy who govern and guide
the city.
Much to her surprise, Irona Matrinko, one of the many
children of an impoverished fisherman, is chosen. Irona 700
moves into the palace and, with the help of a new mentor,
recognizes and cultivates her great talent for guiding wars:
strategy and tactics, leadership and inspiration.
As Irona gives her life to the city, an ancient enemy,
Maleficence, attacks again and again, corrupting Irona’s
friends, destroying her lover, and continually defeating her
grandest plans for peace and harmony. Along the way, Irona
becomes a masterful politician, a shrewd judge of character,
and, even at great cost to her personal happiness, a true
heroine.
