Kole always wanted to be a wizard, a dream that grew into an obsession when his parents disappeared on an adventure. The son of two powerful magical heritages, Kole was hailed as a prodigy at an early age. But a head start is of little use if you're tied to the starting gate. When his mother's magic manifested after he'd already embarked on the path to wizardry, he found he had only a singular powerful magical ability—to turn invisible.

Kole’s first semester at the Academy of Illunia has ended, but his problems at the school have only just begun.
