Three cultures clash in all out war--against each other and against
the gods--in the second book of this fantasy duology that's sure to
capture fans of The Hunger Games and An Ember in the Ashes.
The Races are over. War has begun.
Ashlord and Longhand armies battle for control of the Empire as Dividian
rebels do their best to survive the crossfire. This is no longer a game.
It's life or death.
Adrian, Pippa, and Imelda each came out of the Races with questions
about their role in the ongoing feud. The deeper they dig, the clearer
it is that the hatred between their peoples has an origin point: the
gods.
Their secrets are long-buried, but one disgruntled deity is ready to
unveil the truth. Every whisper leads back to the underworld. What are
the gods hiding there? As the sands of the Empire shift, these heroes
will do everything they can to aim their people at the true enemy. But
is it already too late?
A page-turning inferno of a book. -- Stephanie Garber, #1 New York
