His father (thought to have been hanged at Mankato, Minnesota) reappeared and insisted he receive the white man's education.

Vira, Ronak, Kaleb, and Riya may be siblings, but they've never been close or even liked each other that much.

Magic is Ashoka's biggest export and the only thing standing between them and war with the neighboring kingdoms—as long as their enemies don't find out that the magic mines are nearly depleted.
