The next book in the #1 New York Times best-selling Epoca series
from Kobe Bryant and Ivy Claire.
As Pretia, the Princess of Epoca, prepares to return to Ecrof, the elite
magical sports academy, she is focused on the most important part of her
upcoming year: the Junior Epic Games. She knows that her destiny is to
rule Epoca, but right now, all she wants is to be selected for the
Junior Epic team so that she can compete against the best young athletes
in Epoca and bring honor to her people. But as rumors begin to swirl
about unrest surrounding the Games, Pretia realizes that winning might
not be as simple as being the best athlete she can be. She might have to
decide which is more important: being an athlete or being a leader.
Pretia's best friend, Rovi, is ecstatic when he hears that the Junior
Epic Games will be held in Phoenis, where he lived before attending
Ecrof. True, his time in Phoenis wasn't ideal--he'd lived on the streets
as a Star Stealer, part of a gang of kids who stole what they needed to
survive--but he'd found a home there. He's excited to return as a
Dreamer, an athlete at the top of his game. But all is not well with the
Star Stealers. Rovi's old friends are being blamed for the unrest
surrounding the Games, even though he's sure they have nothing to do
with it. Now that he's back in Phoenis, Rovi is faced with a difficult
question: Is he a Dreamer or a Star Stealer? Can he be both?
As tensions mount, Pretia and Rovi, along with their friend Vera, find
themselves in a race to save the Star Stealers. And they begin to
understand that if anyone is going to make a new future for Epoca, it
just might be them.
