Right before the first book Meadowcity, she gets stuck in Lightcity, waiting for a package to …
Before the first war in a thousand years, Sylvia Thorne was just a normal sixteen-year old girl, who happened to have one of the most dangerous jobs in the Four Cities. Now that I wrote that above line, I’m convinced I need to add it to the description below… Anyway, you get the idea. You’re …
