Ten years after Alex and Aaron Stowe brought peace to Quill and
Artimé, their younger twin sisters journey beyond Artimé in the fourth
novel in the New York Times bestselling sequel series to The
Unwanteds, which Kirkus Reviews called "The Hunger Games meets Harry
Potter."
At last, after harrowing battles and devastating losses, the three Stowe
siblings are reunited. Back in Artime, however, their joy at finding one
another is short lived. Fifer loses her leadership position and
struggles to find her place and purpose, while Thisbe is relentless in
her determination to return to the land of the dragons and help Rohan
rescue the other black-eyed children. Aaron fails to ward off increasing
opposition from a resentful Frieda Stubbs and the dissenters, leading to
a shocking and dangerous turn.
Meanwhile the Revinir pursues Thisbe and Drock all the way to the seven
islands, putting the people of Artimé in peril. To save them, Thisbe
makes an unthinkable sacrifice that leaves Fifer, Aaron, and the others
to face political eruption and destruction in the formerly peaceful
magical world.
