Posing as a mage, a seamstress with unprecedented powers must survive her homeland's infamous magic school-and fight the dark forces threatening her world.
Gwen Tailor is stunned when her most formidable Noble enemy-and captor-Valjean, becomes a powerful ally. Her unique crafter abilities have helped her gain monster-killing talents usually reserved for Nobles, but to save her town and people from extinction, she needs Valjean's help to become a Noble herself and infiltrate their aristocratic circles. So, along with cleaver-wielding butcher Sandy and enchanted-weapons-maker Gerald, she enrolls in the legendary Academy to learn its lethal arts . . . and uncover the secrets behind their land's ruthless class divisions.
Using dazzling new materials, Gwen creates magnificent armor, the likes of which was previously thought impossible. But even as she levels up with astonishing speed, she and her friends battle monsters that many a Noble has failed to survive. And even more difficult is mastering the Academy's ruthlessly strict etiquette and keeping up with the requisite duels of honor.
Now, Gwen must undertake a final Academy mission that will complete her deception and establish her rank as one of the elite. But the hostile perils of the Wild outside civilization will spawn a massive attack even the Nobles' most brilliant minds could not have predicted. And when Gwen makes a discovery that puts into question everything she thought she knew, she must choose between no-win situations and inescapable traps. Meanwhile, beyond the Academy's walls, a sinister force gathers its strength, preparing to seize all in its unforgiving grip . . .
