Young Adult Adventure
FIFTEEN-YEAR-OLD LEO NORTH’S prospects in life are
limited. He attends military school, lives with his
fearful grandmother, and looks after his brother Stirling.
He resists his innate powers, because those who
demonstrate any sort of magical ability are considered
enemies of the state. But when he finds a blank book in
the snow, his typical indifference melts away. From the
first moment he touches the book, he senses its strange
power. Passages start to appear on the pages—revealing
family secrets, telling the history of Malonia, and
uncovering the story of Ryan and Anna, two teens from a
parallel universe. When Leo’s seemingly narrow path takes
an unexpected tragic turn, he finds himself on a journey
from which he can never really return. And, as he slowly
begins to lose touch with reality, Ryan and Anna’s story
comes to the forefront. Their idyllic summer romance—
seemingly worlds away from Leo—has everything to do with
Malonia.
