Title: Dark Flame Rising
Author: J. A. Pedersen
Genre: YA fantasy
Review:
Dark Flame Rising, written by J A Pedersen, is kind of like a modern fantasy book (urban fantasy?) Keegan, the main character of the book, is quite the computer whiz so she's naturally surprised to find out her parents practiced the art of the Wisdom--a form of magic that involves working with the energy of the universe. Keegan's parents died in a fire when she was young, so she has been raised by her grandmother (who happens to practice the art of fortune telling to make a living). Throughout her entire life, she has moved around countless times--she stopped questioning her grandmother why they did so after not receiving any answers. Oh, and one more thing about Keegan--she doesn't believe in magic. She's a sciencey kind of person.
