The Powers That Be

By Amy Laurens

The medical assembly has finally arrested the last existing Power, one of the super-powered, nearly-immortal beings tasked with preserving the balance of the world. All too often, though, their battles have ravaged cities, so the capture of the last one delights everyone.

Everyone--except Rordan. He stands in the cold, snowy street, capturing the story for his local paper--sinking further and further into despair. A world robbed of magic? It hardly bears imagining.

Then a woman in the street catches his eye, a woman with hair of flame and eyes of fire. And Rordan realises: no one ever proved how many Powers existed. Maybe--just maybe--a bigger story waits to be told, one that might just save humanity, if he can expose it in time...

For anyone who values a sense of wonder, and believes that everyone is worth of love.
