Everyone knows the story of Pandora.... However, every 5,000 years, one of Pandora’s descendants must pass the trials of the gods and master each element to renew the one thing that keeps humans from sinking into misery and the evil of this world: hope....

Last time evil came, it left mayhem and sorrow in its wake. What will be the costs this second time around? Zoey has made it through her first semester of Magic Acadamey, barely. Still reeling from her losses, she realizes she doesn’t quite fit into this school either....

No one else sees the monsters that I do. And now three of them want to marry me. Monster-slaying doesn’t pay the bills. No one knows I protect them from the things that go bump in the night. So after dark, I hunt. During the day, I drag myself through work to earn a living....

Zoey is a witch, but she's not very good at it. That is, until she's taken to a secret school of mages. There, she discovers a whole new world of a different kind of magic, one that she seems to excel in....
