Samara knew about the curse—and the monsters—when she chose to study at Axton. She wasn't worried; aetheric research was never going to be safe.
But while Samara is happy to ignore a bit of danger, her curiosity is harder to dismiss. What created the curse? How does it spread? And who are the Guardians that purify the afflicted?
And why, in such prestigious halls of learning, is no one else asking these questions?
After Samara is targeted by the curse, and then rescued by a Guardian, her curiosity sharpens into resolve. She wants the strength to protect others. She wants the power to fight back. She wants to become a Guardian herself.
But the Guardians’ magic won’t be enough to win this battle. The curse is evolving, its horrors multiplying, and now more than one world is in danger. If Samara wants to save the people she loves, she’ll need to learn the curse’s secrets, and master magic that wants her dead.
It’s a good thing she’s a PhD candidate. She’s used to impossible tasks.
