As the heir to House Evensong, Princess Harper's story has already been written: she will become queen of her war-torn planet, Arkron, and continue the Evensong legacy of protecting her homeworld. However, Harper imagines a different role for herself. After all, if she’s not meant to reshape reality through stories, why would the Creator have blessed her with storyweaving?

When Arkron’s negotiations with the Consortium fail, and the Consortium attempts to kidnap Harper as leverage, she must flee home across the galaxy instead of fighting. Revealing her powers would make Arkron a grander prize to the Consortium, and alienate Harper’s people from House Evensong. But perhaps revealing her power is the only way to drive the Consortium from Arkron for good.

With an invasion on the horizon, Princess Harper, her brother Prince Pickett, the accidental shape-shifter Evaly, and the warrior Fayen must band together to return to their planet. As her world shatters around her, Harper is forced to reckon with who the Creator truly made her to be.
