A blood sacrifice. A power-hungry mage. A magical bestiary.

When the ruling mage of Snowfallen chooses Bryn's mother as the next sacrifice, Bryn decides she's had enough.

With her own burgeoning magic, Bryn claims a forbidden grimoire and brings a host of dangerous--and potentially evil--creatures to life.

But will her new power save her mother or turn Bryn into a mage far more vicious than her enemy?

This is a standalone novel within the realm of the Uncommon World.
