"My name is Astra Downs, and in three days I may destroy the word."

Magic has been dead for centuries, so the fact that Astra and Kato have some sort of power crawling beneath their skin may a sign that something is about to happen. The fact that they're twins is even more significant since no twins have ever been born before-not in their kingdom of Callenia or anywhere else on their continent. The power they hold is unknown and ancient, either or a gift or curse from the gods, and the closer they get to their eighteenth birthday, the closer it comes to breaking free and destroying everyone and everything they love.

When a handsome young stranger with connections to the prince of Callenia appears in their nothing town of Timberborn, they may finally have access to the answers they've been seeking their entire lives. Soon, they're running for their lives from a fearful king and the trust of strangers and new friends may be their only chance at survival and controlling their manifesting powers.
