But unseen evil threatens to darken the might of the Ley. Petronia is the daughter of a simple blacksmith yet she feels she is destined for something more. Mysteriously mute from birth, she believes her fate is to become a Ryder. Her protective brother Hayden, however, isn't so sure. Pet has abilities more acute than any Ryder but will her skills bring peace or unimaginable darkness? Under the watchful protection of the Ryders and accompanied by Aarold, a bookish but frail prince denied his throne by the deceitful manipulation of his aunt, they set out on a perilous quest to discover the truth of Petronia's destiny. Ideal for readers aged 16 and over, this is a thrilling fantasy novel from the mind of the creator of the 'Jersey Demon Trilogy' about the paths we must take to find our own voice. Ley Ryders gives prominence to those who have physical impairments through the unique characters included and will be enjoyed by fans of Ilona Andrews and J R R Martin.
