Synopsis

The seeds of revolution have been sown . . . but in Mytica the lust for power reigns supreme.

“Perfect for fans of Game of Thrones.”—Tor

The Rebels forge ahead. Armed with a secret weapon, Princess Cleo rises from the ashes of her family’s defeat and her cruel imprisonment to team up with vengeful Jonas in a hunt for the Kindred, the four hidden crystals that can change their fates.

The Kraeshians join the fray. Royal siblings Ashur and Amara voyage across the vast Silver Sea with their calculating gaze on the Mytican throne, but instead find they desire a prize with far more value.

The Watchers prepare to pounce. They conspire with Melenia in an alliance with King Gaius, who vows to use Princess Lucia’s burgeoning powers to locate and unleash the Kindred.

Prince Magnus must choose a side . . . but what good is a choice when everyone he looks to has already betrayed him?
