The highly anticipated second--and final--book in the immersive
fantasy duology inspired by West African folklore that began with the
New York Times bestselling A Song of Wraiths and Ruin, from author
Roseanne A. Brown. Perfect for fans of Tomi Adeyemi, Renée Ahdieh, and
Sabaa Tahir.
Karina lost everything after a violent coup left her without her kingdom
or her throne. Now the most wanted person in Sonande, her only hope of
reclaiming what is rightfully hers lies in a divine power hidden in the
long-lost city of her ancestors.
Meanwhile, the resurrection of Karina's sister has spiraled the world
into chaos, with disaster after disaster threatening the hard-won peace
Malik has found as Farid's apprentice. When they discover that Karina
herself is the key to restoring balance, Malik must use his magic to
lure her back to their side. But how do you regain the trust of someone
you once tried to kill?
As the fabric holding Sonande together begins to tear, Malik and Karina
once again find themselves torn between their duties and their desires.
And when the fate of everything hangs on a single, horrifying choice,
they each must decide what they value most--a power that could transform
the world, or a love that could transform their lives.
