Firstborn of the Sun

In Oru L?´r? has a secret. She is the only one without agbara - the ability to harness power from the sun. On pain of death must conceal it from everyone. Including her best friend, Alawani.

But when the gods declare Alawani an A`lu`fa´a` - a great honour where he will serve the gods and the Kingdom - he must be stripped of his power in a brutal trial likely to kill him. Unwilling to bear his death, Lore vows to rescue him.

When she desperately attempts to channel agbara an icy shadow magic instead pours from her hands; a power she learns originated from a forbidden, secret land beyond the six rings of Oru.

One which she and Alawani must now seek sanctuary and discover a secret that could bring the Kingdom to its knees . . .<>
