Although Rhennthyl is the son of a leading wool merchant in
L’Excelsis, the capital of Solidar, the most powerful nation
on Terahnar, he has spent years becoming a journeyman artist
and is skilled and diligent enough to be considered for the
status of master artisan—in another two years. Then, in a
single moment, his entire life is transformed when his
master patron is killed in a flash fire, and Rhenn discovers
he is an imager—one of the few in the entire world of
Terahnar who can visualize things and make them real.
He must leave his family and join the Collegium of Imagisle.
Imagers live separately from the rest of society because of
their abilities (they can do accidental magic even while
asleep), and because they are both feared and vulnerable. In
this new life, Rhenn discovers that all too many of the
“truths” he knew were nothing of the sort. Every day brings
a new threat to his life. He makes a powerful enemy while
righting a wrong, and begins to learn to do magic in secret.
Imager is the
innovative and enchanting opening of an involving new
fantasy story.
