Breaking in, stealing and kidnapping was not what seventeen-year-old Freya had in mind. But she is forced to take drastic steps to save her dad and best friend Kim.
Freya is used to a hard life - fetching water from wells and placing buckets under leaking roofs are part of everyday struggles. That is, until the day the High who run the Great Highlands promise them a better life.
Only the High are aware of what lies ahead for the chosen students, so when Freya's tester, Blade, passes her test, she is blindly thrown into a high-tech world where gadgets seem like magic to her.
Soon Freya discovers the High never intended to help them, that they have a sinister reason behind their façade. With her Dad's life on the line and Kim under their control, Freya must find a way to put an end to the High's deception and greed. And the only person she can trust is Blade.

The Mystics Of Valenthia
"So who the heck am I?" I stared defiantly at Freya. "I am a normal person. I go to high school. I have parents. What am I ?" I asked. "That is what we need to find out. Do you trust us enough to stay with us? Help us? You are powerful. You are the only Palenthian, first time in centuries who has magic inside her. Powerful magic. More powerful than most Valen. I can feel it. Stay with us and help us slay monsters. Please." I gulped. "What will I get for that?" "Answers." Renna Evans was just another normal girl in another normal world, living with her normal (and filthy rich) parents and going to a normal high school. Basically her life was as normal as could be. Until she went on a normal walk on a hill side. Little did Renna know that from that point, her life would be anything but normal. Welcome to the world of Renna Evans; a world which is divided into two parts. Those who call themselves The Valenthians, possessing power and magic; and those without it are the Palenthians. What is Renna, really? Will she be able to do what is called upon her? Will she be able to place the pieces of the puzzle which will give her the perfect (or heart-shattering) picture of her past? Will she be able to prove her worth in this new world? Or will her world collapse? And what about the handsome but mysterious Ryan Carter? What exactly is he hiding? Renna will discover a world of peace and war, love and hatred, trust and betrayal; all in her single quest for one thing. FREEDOM.Complete
