Publisher's summary

Magic itself will fight to win, and stop the evil from this fateful sin...

Secrets, stolen memories, a tragic past, and a dangerous future surround James and Rhiannon after they are unexpectedly pulled into a world where magic is real, and alive. Separated eight years ago after the death of their mother, James and Rhiannon must reunite and return home to a magical realm to get back what was taken from them—their magic and memories. While traveling with their aunt and uncle, they discover the truth about their past, where they come from, and how they are destined to stop a demonic being from stealing powers, destroying the realm, and weakening magic itself in the process. Travel to a magical realm hidden within our own world and discover how magic will stop at nothing to survive.

AUTHOR NOTES: This is the first in a series and ends in a cliffhanger. Also, please note that the audio sample includes music, but there is not music in the actual audiobook. This is just to provide a little extra to the sample.

Portal Fantasy and Lots of World Building!

If you love in depth world building, rich magical history, and wonderful cast of characters, this book is for you!

This is a YA fantasy that will definitely appeal to adults. There is some language, but no sex.

The narrator did a great job creating distinction between the character voices. This was a pleasant and engaging listen!
