Color, power, and forbidden magic

On Magus, magical abilities are fueled by color, and Yellow magic is prohibited because of its mind-controlling capabilities. Ava Locke has spent years preparing to join the Benefactors, the continent’s leaders, but her fascination with the imprisoned Yellow magic-user Elm draws her into conflict with them. As she helps him evade their authority, questions about secrecy, injustice, and the nature of her own choices complicate her understanding of the world she hoped to serve. The first volume combines a young adult fantasy premise with Christian-fantasy classification, using color-based magic to frame questions of control and trust.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fantasy with a color-based magic system.
  • Readers seeking fantasy that engages with Christian themes.
  • Readers interested in stories about forbidden power, authority, and questions of personal agency.

Book overview

DANGER LURKS BEHIND EVERY COLOR

Ava Locke dives into the mysteries of forbidden Yellow magic and discovers a dark path filled with secrets and injustice.

When Ava Locke was five years old, she began a journey to join the Benefactors--the leaders of the magical continent of Magus. Twelve years later, she unwittingly started down the road to betray them.

On Magus where colors fuel magical abilities, yellow is banned in an effort to protect people from its mind-controlling capabilities. When a rogue Yellow magic-user named Elm escapes imprisonment Ava becomes innocently fascinated with his story. Once this mysterious Elm shows up at her school, Ava pushes her interest to the next level by helping him evade the Benefactors. Ava grows increasingly conflicted as her intrigue leads her down a dark road of secrets about her world. As she learns more about Yellow magic's potential to control its victims, Ava now must question whether her rash decisions are all her own or if someone else is pulling the strings.
