Synopsis

Katrine of Banur doesn't want to wed. To escape her father's plans, she secretly applies for an apprenticeship at the illustrious Recorders School in Pardish. Only her friend, Polnu, knows her plans.

"Would marriage be so bad?" Polnu asked? "You're very good with your younger brothers and sisters. You'd make a fine mother."

Staring off into the hazy distance, Katrine felt a familiar pressure build up inside her chest. Her voice dropped to a whisper, "Something is calling me, calling me away from here. Sometimes it's so strong I just want to run and run until my lungs burst or me legs fall off. But where? It must be the Recorders School. Where else could I go?"

Before Katrine can answer that question, she embarks on a perilous journey into a realm of magic, evil plots, prophecies, and intrigues. As she is plunged into dangers that challenge her strength and courage, she is forced to redefine her understanding of the world and her place in it.
