Rate this book
In the world of Neverron, magic has always been a thing of myth, or so Mia thought. Until one mysterious night when her fate changed.

A battle of power between those with magic and those without cascaded her directly into the middle of the chaos. Close to her twenty-fifth birthday, Lily, her godmother, suddenly appears and shows her that magic is the very essence of life and that she has the ability to wield it.

At the same moment, the palace where she is on duty as a Kings Guard is attacked. Prince Alex, who has become one of her closest friends and Guard mate, is taken by the magic she once thought only belonged in the fairytale stories she read.

Mia's sense of duty to save her friend leaves her with no choice but to come into her own as an a magical being who wields the power of the elements.

Guided by her enigmatic godmother, she must navigate this treacherous new reality, harnessing an inner power she barely understands. In a land where magic is the key to survival, Mia's journey will reveal secrets long buried and a strength she never knew she possessed.

Can Mia master her magic within and save her friend, or will dark immense powers consume them all?

A Power that lies within is a LitRPG epic of courage, discovery, and the hidden strength that can change the fate of worlds.

I really enjoyed A Power That Lies Within. What pulled me in right away was how character-driven the story is. I loved getting such a clear view inside Mia’s head. It made her struggles and choices feel relatable, and I found myself connecting with her as she faced each quest and challenge.

The imagery and worldbuilding are vivid without being overwhelming, and I felt fully immersed in Neverron. I also liked how the system elements were woven into Mia’s journey in a way that felt natural and added to the tension rather than distracting from the story.

Overall, this book blends character, magic, and adventure in a way that kept me turning the pages. A great LitRPG read that I’m glad I picked up!
