"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.Author Biography
