Science Fiction
Once, Xhea’s wants were simple: enough to eat, safety in the
underground, and the hit of bright payment to transform her
gray-cast world into color. But in the aftermath of her
rescue of the Radiant ghost Shai, she realizes the life she
had known is gone forever. In the two months since her fall from the City, Xhea has
hidden in skyscraper Edren, sheltered and attempting to
heal. But soon even she must face the troubling truth that
she might never walk again. Shai, ever faithful, has stayed
by her side—but the ghost’s very presence has sent untold
fortunes into Edren’s coffers and dangerously unbalanced the
Lower City’s political balance. War is brewing. Beyond Edren’s walls, the other skyscrapers
have heard tell of the Radiant ghost and the power she
holds; rumors, too, speak of the girl who sees ghosts who
might be the key to controlling that power. Soon, assassins
stalk the skyscrapers’ darkened corridors while armies
gather in the streets. But Shai’s magic is not the only
prize—nor the only power that could change everything. At
last, Xhea begins to learn of her strange dark magic, and
why even whispers of its presence are enough to make the
Lower City elite tremble in fear. Together, Xhea and Shai may have the power to stop a war—or
become a weapon great enough to bring the City to its knees.
That is, if the magic doesn't destroy them first.
