"... the story's true power is in the subtle blend of adventure, romance, dark fantasy, and YA elements and in its richly developed characters." Kirkus Reviews

Drawn by fate onto paths unforeseen, Thistle, Ge-or, and Jared find that there are many hurdles to overcome as they grow in their chosen professions - Wizardess, Warrior, Bard. Through Magic, Might, and Music these three learn to understand the most fundamental truths about themselves and the professions they have entered.
Their educations are fraught with problems and dangers they cannot anticipate: Thistle, an apprentice mage learns control of powerful energies, yet, in the process discovers how much she can hurt both herself and others. Ge-or, a trained warrior, finds life can be a series of hard knocks; and that personal loss can weigh heavily on his broad shoulders. And Jared, a talented musician, realizes that his education at Bard Hall is far broader than notes and music - it will serve as a foundation for his life, and a statement of who he is. The Chronicles of Borea is a sweeping fantasy with intriguing plot twists interwoven in a moving fabric of a sensual and powerful writing style. A tale in the true sense of the word -- fun to read and captivating from one book to the next. [ these three //s justified]
