Tisaanah is desperate to rescue Max from his imprisonment, even as her people’s fight for freedom grows more treacherous. But, within the walls of Ilyzath, Max’s mind is a shadow of what it once was . . . leaving his past a mystery and his future at the mercy of Ara’s new, ruthless queen. Meanwhile, in the Fey lands, Aefe has been dragged back into this world by a king who vows to destroy civilizations in her name. But, even as her past returns to claim her, her former self is a stranger. Tisaanah, Max and Aefe are thrust into the centre of a cataclysm between the human and Fey worlds. The unique magic they share is key to either winning the war or ending it. But that power demands sacrifice. Tisaanah may be forced to choose between love and duty. Max cannot forge his future without confronting his past. And Aefe must decide between reclaiming who she was and embracing who she has become. The choices they make will either reshape this world for ever . . . or end it.
