"With every book you read, the more depressing normal life becomes." - Astara Knight
Astara Knight wishes desperately that she could escape the boring, normality of the world. She has always dreamed about magic and adventure. But when you start growing up, believing is hard when everyone tells you it's stupid and childish to do so. Especially when your parents act like you don't exist.
One day her English teacher whisks her away to a world where almost anything seems possible, where magic is the normality. Adventures come with friends and maybe, possibly, even love.
But when old enemies start to threaten the safety of Cornacapia, it's all up to Astara and her friends to figure out how to fulfill the prophecy that might just save them all.
