author Trudi Canavan

*Over 3 million Trudi Canavan copies sold worldwide*

Each year the magicians of Imardin gather together to purge the city streets
of vagrants, urchins and miscreants. Masters of the disciplines of magic, they
know that no one can oppose them. But their protective shield is not as
impenetrable as they believe.

Sonea, angry, frustrated and outraged by the treatment of her family and
friends, hurls a stone at the shield, putting all her rage behind it. To the
amazement of all who bear witness, the stone passes unhindered through the
barrier and renders a magician unconscious.

The guild's worst fear has been realised . . . There is an untrained magician
loose on the streets. She must be found before her uncontrolled powers unleash
forces that will destroy both her, and the city that is her home.
