“With masterful storytelling and lush, lyrical prose, Low spins a tale that feels at once fresh and timeless, creating a world that readers will never want to leave.”—Katie Zhao, author of The Dragon Warrior and Winnie Zeng series.
There is a secret that every child knows: Magic is real. But by the time children turn thirteen, they forget that magic is anything but make-believe.
Mengyao wants to remember. Born in a village nestled in a secluded vale, Mengyao wants to hold on to magic and become a Divine Healer. But with her thirteenth birthday fast approaching, she is losing hope.
Young emperor Kai is on the run from traitorous advisors. He’s searching for the fabled Dragon’s Pulse, a magic capable of defeating his enemies. On the brink of his thirteenth birthday, Kai doesn’t have much longer. So when he meets Mengyao—the girl whose name is mentioned in his legend—he forces aside his instinctual distrust and recruits her to help him on his quest.
On their perilous journey, Kai and Mengyao find aid in unexpected forms like a jade hare, a moon goddess, and a handful of promises. But as enemies close in and time runs out, secrets that will reshape the fate of their kingdom forever come to light.
