(3) YA Scullery maid Bristal, a shape-shifter, learns she is one of only three still-living elicromancers: magic workers charged with keeping peace. As she expands and hones her power, she must decide whether to follow a path of morality or one of power. Fantasy devotees should forgive this debut's occasional abrupt transitions and appreciate the impressive breadth of its world-building and subtle nods to classic tales.
