AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Meg Farmer doesn't believe in magic and she certainly doesn't believe that she has inherited the Blessing, despite her mother's best hopes and prayers. But when an ancient sliver of amber reveals the truth, Meg's life is changed forever. She is called to the city to be trained as a Seer-against the wishes of those who think a woman should be kept from such knowledge...(Publisher's blurb, back cover).
