Synopsis

The second novel in the captivating Chanters of Tremaris trilogy follows Calwyn and her friends to the desolate Merithuran Empire. As they search for a group of kidnapped children who have the gift of chantment, they must negotiate both the unforgiving desert and the even more treacherous Palace of cobwebs, where they uncover the dreadful secret that holds the Empire together. Meanwhile, Darrow has broken away from the group to form a new alliance of his own. Can he still be trusted? In this audiobook, Calwyn's quest for peace and justice has greater consequences than she ever could have imagined.

The second book in The Chanters of Tremaris was just as good as the first. Picking up shortly after the end of The Singer of All Songs, we find Calwyn, Halasaa, Mica, Torro, and Trout working together to make the seas safe from pirates. The only member missing from their gang is Darrow, who has retr......more

I honestly do not know. This book was weird. I still do not understand how Merithuros came to be.
