Valory, an unlikely heroine and descendant of Bristal, must battle the effects of a dangerous, time-bending resurrection spell wreaking havoc on Nissera.
Welcome to Nissera. A century after her legendary ancestors overcame a bloodthirsty tyrant, Valory Braiosa attends a training academy for elicromancers, immortal beings with magical gifts. But Valory's immense power is dangerous, destructive, and seems impossible to tame. When a forbidden resurrection spell awakens a long-dormant evil, Valory may be the only one who can vanquish this terrifying villain-- if she can learn to harness her power. -- adapted from jacket.
