Destination Unknown

Lumen Academy #1

by Penelope Wright

Born a gray, Heidi could become a legend. But only if they don't erase her first.

After a dot of lavender oil and the resonant tone of a magical sound bowl transports Heidi Rivers--a lowly factory gray--into the middle of The Citadel, the heart of enemy territory, she discovers hidden talents.

Born into the lowest caste, Heidi possesses powers more extraordinary than the best Lumen Jumper. Cancelers try to delete her past and turn her brain to mush, but Heidi and her mysterious rescuer stay one step ahead.

She will need all her street smarts, and an unexpected ally or two to navigate the high stakes world of the Watchers, Minders, and Jumpers of the Lumen ruling class.

About the author

Penelope Wright spent a quarter of her life on the east coast and the rest in Washington state. She worked her way through college in restaurants, hospitals, factories, and everything in between, finally graduating summa cum laude from the University of Washington after an absurdly long time. She loves both traditions and new experiences, and will try anything once, except skydiving, which is a hard no. She lives north of Seattle with her husband and two amazing teenagers.

Reviews

[Jocelyn Langlois · Rating 5 out of 5]

I can't wait for the sequel

This was an extremely well written book which does not surprise after having read her other books. The characters are well developed and this story leaves one excited for more.

[Maryse · Rating 5 out of 5]

Only thing disappointing about this story was it’s the only Lumen Academy book is already written. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series as it gets written!
