ZHARA Guardians of Dawn, Book 1

The bright and youthful voice of Katharine Chin brings a lighthearted manga-style energy to ZHARA, the first in a new series by S. Jae-Jones. Although magic is forbidden throughout the Morning Realms, this story focuses on Jin Zhara and her discovery of the Guardians of Dawn, a secret organization seeking to liberate magicians from hiding. Chin's vocal variations provide enough individuation in the characters to keep the listener engaged and following the plot. Strong female characters, interesting new magical elements, and creative world-building show off the work of the author of WINTERSONG. The story is enhanced by Chin's talented narration.
