Facing the Sun

She's an ordinary girl with extraordinary gifts. Her enemies will threaten all she holds dear to make her magic their own…

Tavi Malin is born facing the sun, filled with greater magic than any other sun-blessed child.

When Tavi turns fourteen, her magic awakens. Her uncontrollable, destructive power frightens those around her—almost as much as it terrifies Tavi herself.

Tavi and her friends train to use their gifts, unaware of the threat developing in a distant city. Dissidents have banded together, and they're killing to attain gray magic, an ominous new force that twists good magic into something evil.

To seize true power, the Grays must grow their ranks—and Tavi is a prize worth pursuing. Even her unprecedented gifts may not be enough against enemies who are breaking all the magical rules…

Readers describe this YA fantasy novel as "a new, immersive fantasy experience" with "hints of romance" and "terrific villains."
