That is, until one day, Sarah accidentally levitates Mrs. Winter’s favorite vase in the parlor....

A Great Winged One will soon arise and cast his fearsome shadow upon the land. And just as Night slays Day, and Day slays Night, so also shall another Black Witch rise to meet him, her powers vast beyond imagining. So foretells the greatest prophecy of the Gardnerian mages. Carnissa Gardner, the last prophesied Black Witch, drove back the enemy forces and saved her people during the Realm War. Now a new evil is on the horizon, and her granddaughter, Elloren, is believed to be Carnissa's heir—but utterly devoid of power in a society that prizes magical ability above nearly all else.

When Finlay Ashowan joins the staff of the King and Queen of Daxaria, he’s an enigma. No one knows where he comes from or how he came to be where he is, which suits Fin just fine. He’s satisfied simply serving as the royal cook, keeping nosy passersby out of his kitchen, and concocting some truly uncanny meals. But Fin’s secret identity doesn’t stay hidden for long. After all, it’s not every day a house witch and his kitten familiar, Kraken, take to meddling in imperial affairs.

Publisher's summary
Absolute power corrupts even the best of friends.
Mildred Graeme is a witch that knows what it's like to fail. She loathes small talk, struggles with magic, and grew up wretchedly poor. What's easy for her best friend Evelyn, a wealthy, powerful socialite, is difficult for Mildred.
The two lifelong friends reunite at Chatham Castle where they fight together for the dream of a better world. Mildred wants to save the Network from political elitism, while Evelyn encourages it. When Evelyn gains power and threatens to obliterate the Network, Mildred realizes that she must overcome her fear of failure to save the lives of those she loves, even if it means betraying her best friend.
Mildred's Resistance is the prequel to The Network Series and a gripping tale of intrigue, betrayal, and unexpected romance that defies all odds to rise above the ghosts of failure.

At the Medio School for Girls, distinguished young women are trained for one of two roles in their polarized society. Depending on her specialization, a graduate will one day run a husband’s household or raise his children. Both paths promise a life of comfort and luxury, far from the frequent political uprisings of the lower class. Daniela Vargas is the school’s top student, but her pedigree is a lie. She must keep the truth hidden or be sent back to the fringes of society. And school couldn’t prepare her for the difficult choices she must make after graduation.

Some cryptic words wake college student Jess Ballard from a terrifying dream into an even more terrifying reality. Jess’ life has never been what anyone would call easy; doing damage control in the wake of your nomadic, alcoholic mother doesn't exactly make for a storybook childhood. But now, her world has fallen apart just when it should be coming together: her mother gone—dead under mysterious circumstances; her life uprooted to stay with estranged relatives she’s never met; and there’s something odd about some of the people she’s been meeting at school: They’re dead.

Of course, having a wizard for a human means that trouble is never far away. When Sir Kipling's human goes away for the weekend and leaves him to guard her magical library, things start out quiet. But he soon discovers witches smelling suspiciously of demon magic snooping about, and quiet goes out the window as chaos looms on the horizon.

Fantastic Book
This was a great book. I very much enjoyed seeing how Mildred’s journey of growing up, finding friends, finding work, and how she built the resistance and then becoming the high priestess. There where many things I didn’t see coming or how they would play out even though I read the 4 network books before this one. If you enjoy magic, mystery, love, and overcoming evil give this book a try. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

I loved book one in this series, but the prequel dragged. I couldn’t finish it. I’m going to try book two and hope I like it more.

Read like a bedtime story
I hate to leave bad reviews because I know how much hard work goes into recording a book, but I bought this because it had good reviews, and now I'm returning it, an hour in. So far the story is fine, and I almost kept it, but I just couldn't get past the fact that it sounds like a babysitter reading a bedtime story. It's rushed, and there is very little differentiation of character. Very little emotion. The narrator's voice is pleasant, and I'm sure a child would love listening to her read, but I expect more from an audio book.
