Some have the gift to control fire, others can speak to animals and some can heal. And there are some, although very few, who have no gift at all.

Phillip Jones' one dream is to become the world's greatest soldier but, in a world, full of gifts it’s tough being one of the few without any at all. His friends can speak to bears, heal injuries, control fire and manipulate water while he himself, has no gift of his own. However, when he finds out about an ancient tree that can grant him his very own gift, he goes off in Search for Power.
