Magic is dying. But there is a prophecy
15-year-old Ellie doesnt know about any prophecy. Or magic, for that matter. Life with her scheming guardian in Brooklyn has been anything but magical.
So when a young sorcerer, Thorn, shows up intent on bringing Ellie to Sourcewell Academy, the preeminent school of magic on the East Coast, incredible new possibilities begin to take shape. Yet the freedom and belonging she seeks at Sourcewell are overshadowed when she learns of the prophecy and her connection to it.
While Thorn strives to keep the prophecy at bay, other forces work to bring it to light. Forces willing to put Ellie through tortuous tests and magical trials.
For the prophecy of the Omenborn concerns the fate of magic itself. And Ellie finds her own fate and her very survival at stake.
