On paper, Raven Embyrwilde has everything an 18-year-old girl could want. She's stunningly beautiful, she's the most magicked witch in hundreds of years, and she's even got a handsome werewolf as a sort-of-but-not-quite boyfriend. Unfortunately, reality isn't nearly as kind. Raven's beauty and talent alienate her from her peers, she's forced to live in the controlling shadow of her famous mother, and her relationship with Johan is strained by the ancient grudge between mages and shifters still bubbling beneath the surface of Mistmoon Academy. And that's all before Raven learns the reason behind her power. A prophecy has named her as the sole impediment to an arcane force known as the Nemesis, a threat that has erased its identity from history and could take any form as it seeks to regain a foothold in the realm of Kharakna. With tensions at an-all time high between the Six Houses, Raven must navigate the trials of life and love as she races to fulfill the prophecy everyone won't shut up about; before the world descends into chaos.
