Eriva (Silent World #1)

I love the way your passion shines like a bright star in the sky. If only you’d point it at me where it belongs.

Only select libraries around the world have portals, and they only go to very specific places. Once, the portals were plentiful, and you could travel freely between any one.

But, like everything else, Silence ruined that. In an effort to keep Silence separated from the monster world and keep them from regaining power, the portals were shut down.

That meant travel was stunted unless you were someone like Keary who could travel by different means. Or if you had wings. I always wished I had wings. I’d have flown away from Silence when I was a kid.
