Description
Oksa Pollock's worlds are dying, and she faces her toughest challenge yet - to bring the earth, and her magical ancestral home of Edefia, back to life again. With the globe in the grip of chaos, only the power that Oksa inherits as Graciousness will be anywhere near enough to save it. But between her and hope lies her most wicked enemy - Ocious, the cause of all her family's heartbreak.
There are other things on her mind, too - her mother and her best friend Gus are trapped on the other side of the portal to Edefia, her almost-boyfriend Tugdual is behaving oddly, and her grandmother has been lost to them altogether. If Ocious is able to take someone else close to Oksa, the future of both worlds would be in greater danger than ever...
