As a freshman at Roanoke Academy for the Sorcerous Arts, she has been granted to opportunity to study both mundane and magical subjects.<\/p>\n<p>But even her perfect recollection of every book she has ever read does not help her when she finds a strange statue in the forest-a statue of a woman with wings. Nowhere-neither in the arcane tomes of the Wise, nor in the dictionary and encyclopedia of the non-magic-using Unwary-can she find mention of such a creature.<\/p>\n<p>What could it be? And why are the statue\u2019s wings missing when she returns?<\/p>\n<p>When someone tries to kill a fellow student, Rachel soon realizes that, in the same way her World of the Wise hides from mundane folk, there is another, more secret world hiding from everyone-which her perfect recall allows her to remember. Her desire to know everythingdrives her to investigate.<\/p>\n<p>Rushing forward where others fear to tread, Rachel finds herself beset by wraiths, magical pranks, homework, a Raven said to bring the doom of worlds, love\u2019s first blush, and at least one fire-breathing teacher.<\/p>\n<p>Curiosity might kill a cat, but nothing stops Rachel Griffin!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?e=001FuR4b4B4P7CrWCi-UUt8INtbzebj1C62HYbtxxvqsjcCtLZEHdkPa6q75vc6tSdtSjtFfC_Sy-joYlyh3I2VQ4iXYXy_yODzWDEL8xXnCO9p95xlpdcjeOOhrjKML_JNwpFSA5ZtUIlxoHNQ9SemVOWnQB9cV9r2CCaoYYiWI2cW9eaQsY83NTQ3bw5AD2fL\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Available On Amazon<\/a>\u2014 Kindle and Trade Paper<\/p>\n<p>Great gift for the Harry Potter fan on your list!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sounds like a jolly Christmas present!\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.magicalwords.net\/specialgueststars\/all-about-the-magic\/#comments\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">And here\u2019s a nifty interview with her!<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Oh!\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/r20.rs6.net\/tn.jsp?e=001M2aspbP7QroB2mXoqkc4X57fJymhjmbhnH2ehDKyevGwlDCHlBASW87Kmwk-ppcv91TnSq3oolU-lCk3wd6Ll5qeUkmM756xzGRbrDi2q1JxhNVbfhtGCNE0H0U7ECck_SinCVw310kAHu-CAaCAbA==\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">And visit her Amazon page and like it.<\/a>\u00a0 It\u2019ll help boost her ratings.<\/p>\n<p>And, while we are on the subject <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/John-C.-Wright\/e\/B001IR1FZS\/ref=sr_tc_2_0?qid=1386128252&amp;sr=8-2-ent\" class=\" decorated-link\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">John C.
