About this item
"Graci Kim does such an amazing job of blending Korean mythology into the modern world, I am now wondering how I ever lived without knowing all this cool information."--New York Times #1 best-selling author Rick RiordanRiley Oh can''t wait to see her sister get initiated into the Gom clan, a powerful lineage of Korean healing witches their family has belonged to for generations. Her sister, Hattie, will earn her Gi bracelet and finally be able to cast spells without adult supervision. Although Riley is desperate to follow in her sister''s footsteps when she herself turns thirteen, she''s a saram--a person without magic. Riley was adopted, and despite having memorized every healing spell she''s ever heard, she often feels like the odd one out in her family and the gifted community.
