There’s no road where Karia is going. To find a way to destroy magic, she’s willing to plunge into the dangerous marsh alone. But from the start, she’s accompanied by her wisecracking fat faerie friend, Generality. She’s joined by a young man who’s not shy about declaring his reasons for following her. Then the little band is aided by a sorcerer, who turns out to be an ideal teacher for Karia. For if she is to destroy magic, she must study its ways, discover how to use it, and learn how to speak its language.

In the end, Karia’s path forward comes down to one simple question … a question of trust.

About the author

Ian Fallis

“Words are playthings to him,” one of Ian Fallis’ co-workers is fond of saying.
After earning a journalism degree from Northwestern University, he spent fifteen years at daily newspapers in Southern California, in almost every editorial role: reporter, photographer, copy editor, assignment editor, features editor and night managing editor.
From there he went into New Tribes Mission, learning about languages and linguistics and culture and worldview. In his subsequent fifteen years with NTM, he has been to tiny hamlets and villages across the Asia-Pacific region and in Latin America, gathering stories, taking photos and helping film documentaries.
