    About this audiobook

    A 2018 TEXAS LONE STAR READING LIST PICK!

    ""A rare jewel. A new classic in the fantasy genre."" —Eoin Colfer, author of the bestselling Artemis Fowl series

    Henry H. Neff’s new high-stakes middle grade fantasy follows two unlikely allies as they confront a conspiracy that will shake the world of Impyrium to its core.

    For over three thousand years, the Faeregine dynasty has ruled Impyrium. But the family’s magic has been fading, and with it their power over the empire. Whether it’s treachery from a rival house, the demon Lirlanders, or rebel forces, many believe the Faeregines are ripe to fall.

    Hazel, the youngest member of the royal family, is happy to leave ruling to her sisters so that she can study her magic. But the empress has other plans for her granddaughter, dark and dangerous plans to exploit Hazel’s talents and rekindle the Faeregine mystique. Hob, a commoner from the remote provinces, has been sent to the city to serve the Faeregines—and to spy on them.

    One wants to protect the dynasty. The other wants to destroy it. But when Hazel and Hob form an improbable friendship, their bond may save the realm as they know it…or end it for good.

      Although set in the future, this is a fantasy novel and a 2018 Lone Star book!The Faeregines have ruled Impyrium for centuries, but their magic has abated, leaving them open to be overthrown. Hazel is part of the triplets who are to be the next rulers. She is different from her sisters in that she was born last and is albino; she also has more power than anyone in the family has had for centuries. Her grandmother wants her to be their weapon to take on those who want to take over Impyrium. Hazel, however, is a kind girl who cares nothing for ruling. Hob is a commoner who is sent to spy on the Faeregines in order to take them down. Hob is really smart, but his situation has kept him from going to school. When he becomes Hazel’s tutor, he has the ability to spy on the inner circle as the rebels request. With all the magic, it’s hard for Hob to know who to trust; after all, magic corrupted Hazel’s foremother and she could become evil like her.I enjoyed this novel; I found it captivating, fast-moving, and I didn’t want to put it down. There’s room for a sequel or it could just be a stand alone.
