Nephadsvari: First Language. A term used to distinguish those who have magic and those who don't. Meaning "blessed," "godly," "irregular." The nephadsvari are the protectors of the people. From what is unknown, and Naja Drakea is convinced she isn't one. But even living alone in a cardboard palace can't erase the signs: her magic, however dangerous, and the purple tattoos that scroll across her skin, the ones she's had since birth. She is perfectly content with her life as it is: working at a fabric shop, holding her unpredictable magic in an inescapable grip, and uncontrollably hearing the thoughts of everyone around her. Even regarded as crazy, Naja has never wanted more. Then they come for her. Unwilling to leave, Naja uses more magic in a day then she ever has in her life on two nephadsvari who think her unstable. They bring her back unconscious to their mysterious city, where people with magic walk freely and train hard. Trapped between the ocean and a wall of diamond, Naja meets Abem, a man with magic just as dark and dangerous as hers who offers her protection from the prying eyes of curious others. When people start disappearing from the city, Naja volunteers to join the search party, seeing her chance to escape. However, when Abem becomes one of the missing and leaves behind a message from the god of death, she takes things into her own hands and leads a quest to bring them all back. On the way she faces trials, errors, and the mysterious force the nephadsvari devote their lives protecting the world from, all testing the one thing she insists: she isn't one of them.

Primsharah will become the center of a deadly play, with the powers of the gods themselves at stake ... *** Refusing to watch his family crumble beneath the weight of poverty, Arran has resorted to stealing from the rich to provide for his mother and sister. His ability to bend light prevents him from being caught ... until one day, he is. His captors have no intention of turning him in, though, instead making him an offer that he cannot resist, but which will change the course of his future forever. Meanwhile, Princess Serafina, heir to the throne of Primsharah, welcomes an unusual suitor in the royal palace. This stranger brings a dangerous gift for her father: the Sphere of Truths, one of the ten World Artifacts, created by the gods themselves. As the Shah sinks deeper into his obsession with the Sphere, Inna starts experiencing visions about a thief stealing another Artifact, the Amulet of Doom. A deathly curse is bound to the Amulet, and its theft will set in motion a series of events which might destroy Primsharah for good ... and the world along with it. Together, Arran and Inna flee across the desert to find out who is stealing the Artifacts and why. But Arran's time is limited as the curse flows through his veins, with no hope for salvation save for the stubborn princess who is determined to see his survival. Magic, desert and creatures of myth weave a tale of fragile hope, large-scale betrayal and fierce friendship between two people whose fates should never have crossed paths at all.
