Plot summary
The books tell a story of a boy (Leo North) living in Malonia. He attends military school, lives with his fearful grandmother, and looks after his brother Stirling. He resists his innate powers, because those who demonstrate any sort of magical ability are considered enemies of the state.
One day Leo finds a strange, blank book. Empty pages start to fill with passages though, revealing family secrets, telling the history of Malonia, and uncovering the story of Ryan and Anna, two teens in a parallel universe in modern times England.
When Leo's seemingly narrow path takes an unexpected tragic turn, he finds himself on a journey from which he can never really return. And, as he slowly begins to lose touch with reality, Ryan and Anna's story comes to the forefront.
