BOOK ONE: Without the traditional magics from her Witch and Fae bloodlines, Patricia Valtos thought herself to be boring, average, ordinary. Halflings like her don't get to be extraordinary. Until a mythic being demands that she use her Witch-gifts and Tricia's life falls apart around her, putting her and everyone she knows at risk. Only by exposing old wounds can she excise the rot buried within the Covens and burn the lingering infection of fear and persecution from her world. To save the Witchlings, to save herself, Tricia must uncover the truth within her scars and choose to fight or run. The blood on her hands never seems to fully dry as Tricia abandons who she had been raised to be in search of who she could become. Along the way, Tricia makes new friends, reconnects with those from her past, and meets a male who changes everything. She opens herself up to the possibilities around her, to love and acceptance. There are secrets across the border which continue to shape her expectations and guide her into a future she had never considered for herself - one of power and influence. #AstaniaBooks #AstaniaCommunity
