Inhaltsangabe

On one side is a naïve, sheltered 12-year-old girl. On the other, a revenge-seeking sorcerer. One knows nothing of the world or the hidden power she carries. The other has thousands of years of magic and a ruthlessness that knows no bounds.Twelve-year-old Oelsa's sheltered childhood shatters when her father is kidnapped and she's the only one to rescue him. But how? With the help of a shape-shifting raven, a woodsman, a wizardess, and her feisty cat, Oelsa will travel across Idelisia, her courage tested at every turn.Anvyartach, the Shadow Lord, will stop at nothing to steal Oelsa's secret Key. When the FireIce, a weapon that craves raw emotions, takes on a life of its own, only the Key's primeval magic will stop it.The balance of control of Idelisia teeters between the awakening of an ancient power and the regeneration of a tyrant. The winner takes all and the lives of all will be affected forever.
