I coundn't wait to get my eyes on this one and I have been holding it close ever since! Why? Have you ever had that feeling, on reading a book, that you are part of the world that is in in, that it is there for you and you for it, that you would do anything for it, need more of it? Brigid Kemmerer did that for me the very first time I read about Emberfall and Shyl Shallow, they are my worlds now too. Filled with magic, that I very firmly believe in, and challenges that need readers to strengthen the intentions of the heroes facing them, this is a thrilling read.
​
Tycho, courier to the king, has made a bargain, a treacherous one and now finds himself under the command of the scraver who saved the king's life. If he makes one wrong move everything could be over.
​
Jax is with Tycho, having fled Briarlock and is now finding both challenges and adversaries.
​
Callyn is now at court, with the queen and with magic, quite a turn of events for her. But there is no-one for her to trust.
​​
All three need to learn how to hold and use the magic they have, magic now dividing their kingdom. They will be tested. Love will be tested. Is magic the answer...?.
