Jorn: Book 2 in the Power of Nine Trilogy#2

Jorn grows up happily with his rural foster family and learns his foster father’s trade, weaving. But Rolf, his guardian, cannot let him enjoy his simple life for much longer.  Jorn is nearly 18 and has a magical Gift so powerful and dangerous that not even he has been told about it: he is the first mage for a thousand years to possess the ability to control all Nine colours of magic.

Although Rolf and the other leaders don’t know if Jorn can or will accept his Gift, he is their only hope against the alien warlord Darric, a powerful mage who has been steadily building an army and is now ready for an all-out assault on Earth.

Jorn has the potential to save the planet from attack, but he has a lot to learn before he can use his Power and he is feeling the pressure. Can he master his Gift and come to terms with his extraordinary heritage in time?
