Yesterday you were just a girl living in a military garrison on the border of the empire—and today you’re an initiate of the Academy of Magical Arts with the most unexpected outcome of the entrance exams. And it doesn’t matter that others call you a half-blood: the adventures you’ve had to dive into headfirst don’t make that any easier. Strange fairy tales, dark secrets of the empire under the Black Moon don’t care about purity of blood—they need someone who will listen, understand, and unravel. Your move, Vidana Trimeer.
In Ella Rain’s novel “The Half-Blood,” Vidana Trimeer becomes an initiate of the Academy of Magical Arts after difficult entrance trials. But even more serious trials await her when she tries to uncover the empire’s dark secrets—where purity of blood is not what matters.
