The future of our society depends on our gifted children - the population in which we'll find our next Isaac Newton, Albert Einstein, or Virginia Woolf. Yet the gifts and talents of some of our most brilliant kids may never be recognized because these children fall into a group known as twice exceptional, or "2e". Twice exceptional kids are both gifted and diagnosed with a disability - often ADHD or an autism spectrum disorder - leading teachers and parents to overlook the child's talents and focus solely on his weaknesses.

Princess Bellanova has survived in the shadows for years. An exile haunted by a curse that plunged her family into a deathless sleep and left her home rotting, Nova has spent seven years trying to endure while honing her gifts—and now she will use those gifts to walk into death. For rumor has it that Luminor, the Blade of Light—the cursed weapon that felled her family—is buried in the underworld. If Nova can steal it, she might break the spell and reclaim the kingdom.

A winged guardian with a gaze like lightning. A drake whose heat melts her fear. A wraith who touches her through dreams. A wolf who chases her under the moon. And a horned king bound to the roots of the curse itself.

Tone-deaf, untrained, and terrified, she is mistaken for the fabled Storm Singer—the one destined to summon sound against the creeping Silence devouring the world. Now four elemental masters claim her in turn: the Fire Dancer whose touch burns with rhythm, the Water Cellist who plays her body like an instrument, the Earth Drummer whose hands promise shelter and ruin, and the Wind Flautist who seduces her breath itself.
