Publisher's summary

Fail the tests and become a slave. Display defectiveness and be put to death.

Monroe Academy was built to separate the weak from the strong.

  • Pass the biyearly leveling and be released into society upon graduation.
  • Fail to be promoted and be placed into servitude.

Branded as the academy null, this was a rule that applied to all but Rayah Bardeau. The Lighter with no light.

After Rayah’s mother made a devastating sacrifice, Rayah was given until the age of twenty to make level six, but after years of training, she was still only a mere level one. The same level she’s been since she was ten years old.

Overwhelmed by the upcoming test, consumed by guilt, and wary of academy bullies, Rayah could only dream of escaping her world.

…And one night, her dream had come true…

Only, when Rayah reawakened in her dorm, she couldn’t distinguish if she had only dreamed of meeting Soren, a defect from the wild-lands, or if she had somehow used her Lighter Form to jump there.

But only the elite the most powerful of Lighters could manifest their Lighter Forms. Right?

And what was that dark energy she used when under attack by depleters? Was Rayah really as powerless as she thought? And if she could use dark energy, could she even call herself a Lighter at all?

Bestselling author Destiny Hawkins brings you the first installment of a gripping dark fantasy where a powerless girl must survive in a society that doesn't accept the weak...or the defective.

Content Advisory: The following book contains vivid depictions of violence and death. Listener discretion is advised.
