Avatar: The Last Airbender meets Fight Club in this action-packed
fantasy about a secret, underground magic fighting tournament.
*If the magic doesn't kill her, the truth just might.*Aza Wu knows that
real magic is dangerous and illegal. After all, casting killed her
sister, Shire. As with all magic, everything comes at a price. For Aza,
it feels like everything in her life has some kind of cost attached to
it. Her sister had been casting for money to pay off Saint Willow, the
gang leader that oversees her sector of Lotusland. If you want to
operate a business there, you have to pay your tribute. And now with
Shire dead, Aza must step in to save the legacy of Wu Teas, the teahouse
that has been in her family for centuries.When Aza comes across a secret
invitation, she decides she doesn't have much else to lose. She quickly
realizes that she's entered herself into an underground casting
tournament, and the stakes couldn't be higher. Real magic, real
consequences. As she competes, Aza fights for her life against some very
strong and devious competitors.When the facts about Shire's death don't
add up, the police start to investigate. When the tributes to Saint
Willow aren't paid, the gang comes to collect. When Aza is caught
sneaking around with fresh casting wounds, her parents are alarmed. As
Aza's dangerous web of lies continues to grow, she is caught between
trying to find a way out and trapping herself permanently.
