The Ballad of Sara & Jared (Paperback)

Sara is an orphan, seemingly bereft of the magic that is expected in every child. But when the leader of her orphanage tests her again, he discovers a terrifying truth. Sara is a Necromancer, the most hated and feared kind of magician in the world. She is sent to Caledonia, the forbidden city, where the only other Necromancer in the world lives, imprisoned by powerful wizards, because he is supposedly insane and deadly dangerous. She must learn her art from him or live an eternity in pain and torment.
