Shattering the Ley

ENTER A WORLD POWERED BY LEY LINES! Erenthrall—sprawling city of light and magic, whose streets are packed with traders from a dozen lands and whose buildings and towers are grown and shaped in the space of a day. At the heart of the city is the Nexus, the hub of the ley line system that powers Erenthrall and links the city and the Baronial plains to the rest of the world. The Prime Wielders control the Nexus with secrecy and lies, but it is the Baron who controls the Wielders and the rest of the Baronies through brutal intimidation enforced by his bloodthirsty Dogs and unnatural Hounds. When the rebel Kormanley seek to destroy the ley system, two people find themselves caught up in the ensuing chaos that threatens the fabric of reality itself: Kara Tremain, a young Wielder coming into her power, who discovers the forbidden truth behind the magic that powers the ley lines; and Allan Garrett, a recruit in the Baron's guard, who learns that the city holds more mysteries and more danger than he could possibly have imagined.
