The gripping new magical adventure from Branford Boase winner Struan Murray.
Domino has lived her whole life believing that just one drop of magic could kill her.
Held in a floating laboratory by scheming Science Barons, she has never known a single day of freedom.
When Domino discovers that everything she's been told by the Barons is a lie, she escapes to Abzalaymon, a wondrous city filled with scientific marvels, hulking thunder lizards and hidden magic.
But the Barons are soon on Domino's trail. Because a war is brewing between science and magic. A war that could destroy the world. And Domino might just be the key to saving everyone . . .
