Publisher Description

Impossible choices. Explosive magic. Brilliant humor.

Connor is cursed . . . In Obrion, that means he must obtain patronage from a high lord prior to his sixteenth birthday, or face execution.

Connor turns sixteen tomorrow.

Not to worry, he has a plan. Although it doesn't take into account little things like 'accidentally' setting the local lord's mansion on fire or his town getting invaded.

Armies clash, superhuman Petralists step out of legend, and layers of deadly intrigue shatter Connor's simple life. Caught in the middle of the conflict, he cannot understand why both sides are so interested in his curse.

If he stays, he dies. If he leaves, people he loves will die. Some birthdays are like that.

And there's this girl . . .

Dive into this epic coming-of-age fantasy, bursting with intrigue, danger, enemies-to-friends, and a unique approach to a path to progression, wrapped in brilliant magic, vibrant setting, action, and humor.
