Author's Note

Growing up in a land that forbids magic and executes anyone who practices the taboo craft, Hali finds herself thrust into a world that she only read about in the books at the Forbidden Library.

She ends up going on a magical journey with her best friend Kai, and ends up befriending an unexpected stranger along the way. She hopes he's the person who can teach her about magic and the wonderful world past the Wall.

Unlikely foes, unforeseen secrets, and unexpected adventures are exactly what Hali has always wanted in her life, and she's about to go on a whirlwind of a journey.
