They didn’t mean to start a war, but they might hold the key to stopping it. Alara and her band of rebels have escaped the Haven, leaving Sombria on the brink of another civil war between those with magic and those without. With conflict inevitable, Alara must decide if she’s ready to fight against her once allies, and if the survival of magic is worth everything she’s lost. Quenti yearns for the Council's complete and utter collapse. She never wanted to be a warrior, but in the aftermath of a brutal attack and the threat against those she loves, she’ll become the soldier she needs to be, even if it means aligning with the very people she hates most. As war looms ever closer, the mystery of Alara’s dagger leads them to the desert city of Lejon and the heart of the Council’s oppression of magic, a cruel mine that serves as a bruya prison. To unlock the blade’s secrets, they need to do the impossible: descend into its depths and somehow emerge alive. Quenti and Alara’s adventures continue in book two of the Mage War Chronicles, a Young Adult Epic Fantasy series featuring elemental magic, a diverse cast, and political intrigue, perfect for fans of Avatar: The Last Airbender, The Lunar Chronicles, and Shadow & Bone.
