Crown Of Lore

In the Queendom of Lore, magic chooses you--whether you want it or not. Arabella is a Relic class peasant, toiling day after day, scavenging the wastelands near the deadly borders of the Lore Queendom. With the love of her life, Asher, by her side, she's accepted her fate, but everything is about to change forever. At the age of seventeen, each Queendom of Lore citizen must take part in the Transfer of Life ceremony. If chosen, the memories and royal responsibilities of the fallen elders are passed on to those who are deemed worthy. During the ceremony, Arabella's fate is ripped from her when the Queen unexpectedly dies--throwing the Queendom into chaos. Somehow, the royal marking is branded onto Arabella's arm, terrifying the almighty Council of Lore. According to tradition and law, a simple peasant must never hold the Queen's Essence or the immense magical power that comes with it. Torn from all she's ever known, Arabella fights to prove she is worthy of the new magic inside her and to reunite with Asher before it's too late.
