'Transition' Summary
In Emma Frances Brooke's Transition, Anya is born into a world where everyone is assigned a role at birth, based on their innate abilities and talents.

Anya is one of those people. She's been assigned the role of a healer, but she doesn't feel like she belongs. She's always been drawn to the world of magic, and she dreams of one day becoming a powerful sorceress.
But magic is forbidden in Anya's world. Those who practice it are seen as heretics and outcasts.
Despite the risks, Anya is determined to pursue her dream. She leaves her home and travels to the Forbidden Lands, where she seeks out the help of a mysterious mentor.
