A Chain of Lights - Stars Fall Out, #1 - E-book - ePub

Magic is power, and only the Kirosz Empire's oneiromancers can wield it. It's why the city of Nirsuathu surrendered, and why no one challenges imperial rule. Until now. When a Nirsuathan professor engineers a magic of his own, Tyatavar and her sister Vilari both take his magical aptitude test. While Vilari becomes the first student of his new magic and struggles to learn from its abrasive creator, Tyatavar remains stuck running the family bakery as an unwanted marriage closes in-until she steals a magic vial of the professor's creation, one with the power to travel instantaneously to any place along the bank of a river, lake, or ocean. But the empire's oneiromancers-each capable of creating reality from dream-have taken an interest in the professor's magic as well. As Nirsuathu's own laws and traditions clash with imperial power, Tyatavar's theft proves even more disruptive than the magic itself-and forces choices between truth and power, lies and friendship, home and self. Coming in Winter 2024, A Chain of Lights is the first book in the Stars Fall Out series.
It includes an imperial occupation, mysterious magic, sibling problems, a secret marriage, and lots of baked goods and banter.
