Summary
Half god and half human, Rue has made a vow to restore the magic that the Chancellor and the Grays have stolen from the Ghizoni and take back their land; she has more fully embraced her identity among the people of Yiyo Peak, but she is also from East Row in Houston, and girls from East Row do not give in to oppressors.
After the murder of her mother, Rue was taken from her home in Houston and forced to assimilate into her father's home: Ghizon, a country of magic-users who are as powerful as gods. In the aftermath of a battle against the Chancellor, ruler of Ghizon, Rue is locked away, her powers sealed, her memory erased. Despite a betrayal, after her escape from the prison, Rue must decide once and for all if she can trust her friends-- and herself-- to restore her peoples' legacy. -- adapted from jacket
