This story is a sequel to City of Mages. If you have not yet read it, you can do so here!

The illusion of peace within the realm of Sombria is broken.

Thanks to Alara, the tenuous truce between the mages and blameless is on the verge of collapsing, and the Council will do whatever it can to retain control.

With an all-out war on the horizon, the only chance of survival may lie within a mysterious dagger in Alara's possession. Left with few options, she and her bruya allies move to unlock its mysteries in a journey that takes them deep into the crystal mines of Lejon, where the Council has enslaved tens of thousands of bruyas for generations.

In doing so, they confirm their greatest fears: that the corruption within the Council goes much deeper than they ever could have imagined.

Experience the continuing journey in the second book in the Mage War Chronicles!
