Book 2
Recovered from her frightening ordeal in Daughter of Storms, Shar Tillmer is quietly resuming a normal life at the castle, unware that her unique powers are under threat. A letter arrives for Shar from her mother - who she has long believed to be dead - warning Shar that she is in grave danger. The letter tells her that she must leave the castle and go to the province capital where her mother, and safety, are waiting for her. Shar wants to believe her mother is alive, but how can she be sure this is not a trap? Curiosity gets the better of her, and against all advice Shar arrives at the capital only to find deception, illusion, trickery and betrayal waiting for her. With the help of her protector, a magical white cat, and good friends, Hester and Kitto, Shar defies the evil forces who wish to destroy her. But only now does Shar realise just what a danger her special powers pose - to herself most of all!
Book 3
In disgrace after her last dangerous display of her power, Shar is forbidden from dabbling in any magic without the explicit permission of the High Initiate. But then Shar hears of an unprecedented experiment the High Initiate is conducting with the other Circle Adepts. The Circle's plan is to unlock the secret of the Maze - a magical gateway through time - and freely explore other worlds, times and universes. But their plan doesn't work and Shar cannot resist attempting the experiment herself. Using every ounce of her unique power Shar is determined to succeed where the Circle has failed. At first she simply enjoys whizzing through time, visiting her ancestors, but when she discovers she can change the course of history, she has a shocking realisation: she can prevent the death of her parents and avenge their killer! But with this chance comes chaos and destruction and quite possibly Shar's own death. Can she take such a risk this time?

Brought up with her uncle, Thel, in a world where magical talent, or a gift of higher power, is encouraged, Shar is disturbed - and excited - to discover that she has such a gift; she can communicate with the elementals - creatures of fire, earth, air and water who control and watch over the universe. But this gift needs to be carefully nurtured and Thel feels he is the one to guide his niece. Shar has never trusted her uncle, and when she overhears him plotting to kill the head of the High Margave, her doubts are confirmed. For the first time, Shar has to use her special powers to save a life, and defeat her evil uncle. In a terrifying duel with the elementals, and the gods of her universe, she fights against the evil that threatens her home and her special power ...Until the next time ...
