Summary

The old writer witch was dead. Nadia Oswald watched him die. She held his hand until the light left his eyes. She was a human, but in that moment as he passed from life to death, she inherited his power. A power she hides from her family who hates magic and all who possess it.

Aidan Montgomery was born a witch. He was born with the rarest form of witchcraft, a fact he keeps hidden to protect himself. As an anchor witch he couldn’t feel more disconnected from his abilities if he tried. His power feels opposite to who he is. How can he anchor the world if he can’t even anchor himself?

Unrest in the south ends their world’s centuries of peace. In the north, a group of scientists builds a spaceship, the first their world has seen, keen on visiting the neighboring planet and the species there. So much threatens to tear things apart or change them for good. But fate has a funny way of making people come together. And destiny has a way of changing everything. . . .

Love this book!

I absolutely loved this book!

The story is fast paced from the beginning as you get to know the characters and this world where humans and witches struggle to co-exist. I found myself so surprised with how young the characters were and how much they were forced to face.
There is a tad bit of romance near the end and I loved how it strengthens the relationships of the main characters without being the main focal point.

I can’t wait to see what happens with the next book!

If you’re looking for a fast paced YA book or palette cleanser then I highly recommend this one!

Narration:
I did read this as an audiobook and absolutely loved the narration. The narrator did an amazing job differentiating between all the different characters. There were even some nice little surprises thrown in that had me squealing in excitement. The emotion throughout the performance enhanced the story and I couldn’t get enough. If you love audiobooks definitely check out this narrator.
