What if color held the secrets to powerful magic? Forced to move into the palace, Jessa begins training as a Color Alchemist under the direction of the kingdom's most eligible bachelor, Prince Lucas. As an alchemist, Jessa must capture and harness the color of living things. Every color has a unique purpose, except red. Red is the untapped magic no one can access—until Jessa. Prince Lucas is running out of time. His mother is deathly ill and healing magic hasn’t worked. When Lucas suspects someone is using alchemy to control her, he sets out to discover the truth, no matter the cost. PRISM is the first installment of a unique young adult romantic fantasy series where a dystopian world with a Victorian flair meets the dynamic magic of color. “...The (quite literally) colorful landscape—animated by an intriguing cast—is complex but well-explained. Masterfully plotted, Walker builds to not one but several unexpected twists in the novel’s final pages. Readers will no doubt clamor for the next book in this series; a thrilling start from an exciting new talent.” –Kirkus Reviews
Review
"The story captivated me from the first sentence, the colors practically jumping off the page. Jessa and Lucas's romance was so well developed, with just the right mix of conflict and teen angst to keep you rooting for them." -Tricia Barr, Author of The Bound Ones series
"Young adult readers will enjoy Prism's romance, plot twists, and of course, romance... I wouldn't be surprised if people began practicing alchemy with their potted plants after reading this book. An impressive debut for what appears to be a promising series!" -Eleyne-Mari Sharp, director of the Aura House School of Color and Light
