Description
This captivating fantasy love story by award-winning Russian author is based around an eighteen-year-old sorceress Layne Vayris, who has her fair share of adventure, romance and magical times.
Layne Vayris has lost the two most dearest people to her. Her mentor and her Uncle Niklas. Each have tasked her with delivering their last requests. Layne's mentor requires three letters to be delivered on specific dates and specific times. Whereas her Uncle Niklas has asked that she deliver an unusual book of his, to an unworthy previous student called Goter.
To complete their dying wishes she must leave her peaceful and tranquil village of Wolverdell to enter a bustling city of magic and depravity.
There she meets a young homeless boy called Remi, who guides her through the city. Their friendship spurs her on to find the first addressee of the three letters, a Master Sharrez. But Master Sharrez is aloof and spends his time in whore houses, making an audience with him near on impossible.
Layne realizes that the only way to fulfill her promise to her dead mentor is to join the Academy of Magic, where the warlock Sharrez teaches the Faculty of Dark Magic. Except this decision comes with its own demons and Layne finds herself setting off on a path she never envisaged. A path that leads her to discover her own dormant magic, which becomes all consuming and more powerful than anyone has ever seen before.
But with power comes enemies. And in trying to deliver her second letter, she finds that not all 'old' friends are friends, and things take a turn for the worst. Layne finds herself having to fight for her life with some unlikely friends to boot.
Will Layne be able to deliver the third letter in time? Will she pass on her Uncle's book to the unworthy Goter? Or will the power of magic end her before she's even begun?
