Aurora

Imagine a world where you can become the richest man or woman on Earth by literally trading rags for riches. Imagine a world where anyone-sick, old, lame or poor-can live forever. Now imagine that same world but with one catch...

You must kill one of your fellow human beings to maintain your immortality. It can be anyone-your father, your sister or even your next door neighbor. Not so sweet now, is it?

This is the life that Aurora Hawthorne has always known. No friends, no family-just an oppressive man who calls himself her Master and beats her constantly. Although her life is filled with Alchemy-a dark, seductive magic-and she literally holds the power of a thousand thunderstorms in her hands, life isn't so great. You see, in this society, there are three groups of humans: regular humans, Master Alchemists and Alchemic slaves, also known as Breakers. Regular humans are just that-regular, but their supernatural counterparts are much more complex...and far darker.

Is there any hope in a world so corrupt? Can the young girl find love when people have done nothing but mistreat her? Find out in the first installment of the Alchemic Chronicles-Aurora.
