A yellow word has appeared beneath GREYBOROUGH on a city sign. It should not matter. To Alyse Merrison, it does.
At fourteen, Alyse returns to Vellumgate University more capable, more curious, and far less willing to accept the first explanation she is given. But another year in Wonder brings more demanding magic, fiercer competitions, dangerous encounters, and mysteries in which appearances can be every bit as misleading as lies.
The deeper Alyse and her friends investigate, the more they discover that knowledge carries responsibility - and that the difference between seeing something and understanding it can become dangerously important.
Wonder is opening new doors. Some of them may have been closed for a reason.
