Immisceo.
Latin for: mix in, blend… This is where the story begins.
In a divided world where magic determines rank and value, Luciana’s freedom is bartered for power she never asked for. Tasked by the Duciti to bear a new Immisceo and serve as a weapon against Amara’s revolt, she finds her son’s abduction forces every belief into question. Joined by Nathaniel, a man driven by loyalty rather than magic, she must choose between survival and the price exacted by power.

More About the Series
With magic as the highest form of power, and those with magic in authority, non-magic humans rank generally low in society, but even within the vast community of witches there is discrimination. Witches of the world were all once gifted in magic of both the mind and of the elements. Their power came to be known as Immisceo magic, meaning mixed, and in this case, dual. So strong are these abilities, that Nature herself enforced a limit. Those born with both strains of power would face twice as many limitations, able to use only a fraction of their magic without fatal consequences. Other unions gave birth to magicless witches, possessing the capacity for dual magic but born bereft of power, eventually known as mimics.
