In Magic of Lo, three children are transported by magic to a world torn apart by war. The children are lost and separated, held prisoner and used as pawns in the battle beween the Arnden scientists and the Avalan wizards for political control of the planet. In Book 2, Era Marie becomes a wizard with the power to challenge the powers of Lo, she save the life of an Arnden cub and discovers a terrible secret about the wizards of Lo. Kelley describes Book 2 in a letter to her readers by saying, "I have to admit, I wasn't sure I wanted to tell you this part. The middle part is the most difficult to write about. It's where everybody screws up and nothing goes right. It is where the hero looks like a schmuck and the villain looks like he might be the hero. Sometimes, when I'm telling the story, I can't even tell the good guys from the bad guys. But, that's why the middle is also the most honest part of the story..."
