When their brothers die, Alban and her sister, Rayhan, must take up the roles of heir and wizard. While facing their own personal struggles, they must save their family, their world, and magic. Magic has been banned in the north, the same magic that holds back the demonic myst that would devour their world. Wizards are dying. AND Alban’s and Rayhan’s new husbands have been poisoned. Alban risks her life on an untried path to become a wizard so she can search for the cure, while Rayhan leads her armies into bloody battle. With old magic newly found, battles fought, and difficult choices made along their journeys, they discover their strengths and talents. And, we hope, survive.

A fast-paced adventure with a wonderful sense of time and place, this book turns the hero myth on its head with female characters tasked with the ultimate responsibility to save their world. The story also had an interesting political statement regarding racism that made the book more interesting to me. Or I could be reading more into it than intended. It could just be a good story with wizards and magic and love.If you’re a lover of fantasy and looking to get lost in a battle against evil where all that’s good and right is clearly set before you, then Alban’s Choice is skillfully told.
