About this book

Magic is different in the Dread Lands. Magic is deceptive in the Dread Lands. At last, The Dread Prince takes the throne and begins to develop his own army while battling the darkness that still lurks in the ancient and deadly Dread Lands. Maeve is grieving a great loss as Mal slips into darker and darker Magic, driving a wedge between them. War looms with the other realms, and Maeve and Mal question the dragon-shifting High Lord of Aterna’s loyalty to their cause.

Cassie Mullens

Wow. The twists and turns, chef’s kiss!

"This series has been a great find. Sometimes it’s hard to follow the author’s style if writing, but definitely worth it. The characters, the world building, the plot is amazing. ["

Good but not great

"Wasn’t as good as the first and quite scatter brained honestly. Continues to have grammatical errors, needs a new editor. ["
