In a world ruled by magical nobles, Myne dreams of creating books where none exist. When her immense power draws deadly attention, she assumes a new identity as Rozemyne, leaving her family and past behind. In a society driven by ambition, secrets, and schemes, she must outwit conspirators, protect those she loves, and fight to bring books and hope to a world that has long forgotten both.
