As summer draws to a close before junior year, Rowyn Black is tired of seeing the Tower card stare up at her from the table.On their 16th birthday, Rowyn's kind is gifted with awesome powers. But this is not Narnia or Hogwarts; this is Elizabethtown, Illinois, and much to the chagrin of the local chapter of Susie-Homemakers, witches live here.All witches understand that the universe is a scary sort of powerful. Rowyn hopes that the only thing the Tower foretells is the sight of the school parking lot on the first day, full of more jacked-up trucks and cut-off shorts than a Luke Bryan video.But the universe has other plans, and when the Tower comes crashing down, will they all fall with it?Praise:β
