Ideal for fans of the Inheritance Series and Dragonlance. The second book in The Recharging series is full of adventure, romance, and discovery. If you enjoy fantasy with mythological creatures and exploration of fascinating lands, this is the series for you. Talia had only just learned she's the True Heir of an ancient city when the astropriests slap her with another title: Bright One. The Holy Gemstones, she traveled the continent to acquire, combined with the Tarbin crown are a Key to work a Machine capable of Recharging the magical power of the entire planet. A year ago, Talia didn't know magic was real, let alone that there were entire civilizations of magicals hibernating, awaiting the Great Awakening. Though King Roland thinks Talia is under a foreign influence, her twin, Tanin, knows better. She wants to steal everything that is his by birthright. Intent on her complete destruction, Tanin searches for advanced technology to regain his crown and title. He finds his weapon when he meets a prophet who speaks of the old gods and a bright future. Tanin finds his true calling and vows to stop his sister from rejuvenating the should-be-extinct magicals. With the help of her guardians, some friendly dwarves, and representatives of the few surviving magicals-elves, dragons, mermaids, and nadph-Talia sets out to defy her upbringing and recreate a diverse world that thrived for millennia. If she fails, the magicals will wither away as the magic dies out and Talia will have no place to call home.
