About This Book

A novel of poweful magic and epic adventure--from the co-author of the bestsellling Adept series. For decades, the exiled rulers of Caledonia have grown soft amid the hospitality of their Feyan hosts. Now the time has come for Duncan and his sister Mhairi to regain their throne and unite their people in a struggle for freedom.

Our Review

This epic fantasy adventure plunges readers into a world of powerful magic and political exile, where the displaced royal heirs of Caledonia have grown dangerously comfortable in the enchanted mists of their Feyan sanctuary. The narrative follows siblings Duncan and Mhairi as they are thrust from passive refuge into a desperate struggle to reclaim their stolen throne and unite their fractured people, a journey that demands they trade the safety of hospitality for the brutal realities of leadership and rebellion.

What distinguishes this quest is its compelling focus on the psychological cost of exile and the challenge of rallying a dispirited nation, themes that resonate deeply with any reader who has ever felt out of place or burdened by legacy. The dynamic between the two royal siblings provides a strong emotional core, exploring the different weights of duty and the sacrifices required for true freedom. Fans of intricate world-building and character-driven fantasy will find a rich, immersive experience that lingers long after the final page.
