Two kinds of people inhabit my world: Those with loads of magic and those with little or none. The Haves - usually warlords and their henchmen - use their arcane abilities to keep the Have Nots firmly squashed beneath their enchanted thumbs.

Unfortunately, I fall into the second category.

The only thing worse in this lawless and brutal world than being magically stunted?

Being a woman.

On my own since age 11, I stayed alive by posing as a boy, stealing to keep my belly full, and never lingering in one place for long. Lonely? Sure, but it kept me safe for eight long years. Until I picked the wrong gang to filch a loaf of bread from. If not for the magically skilled warriors who happened by, the blunder surely would have been fatal. The last place I wanted to be was in the hands of a warlord, but I wasn't given much of a choice. After rescuing me, they whisked me off to their encampment.

fully intended to get the hell out at the first opportunity. And I would have, too, if everyone hadn’t been so damned nice. Or not dangled an offer to teach me how to use the powerful magic I didn’t know I had. Guess I'll just have to see if I'm as much of a magical badass as they think...
