Kai Yusuf thought his biggest problem was math-until he learns the truth: he's a wizard, his cat can talk, and magic is real. Soon, Kai leaves home for Crescent Academy, a school full of magic, new friends, and strange rules. But something dark is watching him. It whispers his name and knows what happened to his father. As friendships form and Kai learns to use his powers, he must be brave, trust his friends, and face a growing danger--the same shadow that killed his father--before it finds him first.
