Inhaltsangabe

A thrilling sequel to These Rebel Waves―full of deadly magic, double crosses, and a revolution―from Sara Raasch, the New York Times bestselling author of the Snow Like Ashes series. Perfect for fans of Shannon Hale, Leigh Bardugo, and Marissa Meyer.

As a child, she committed unforgivable acts to free Grace Loray from King Elazar of Argrid. Now Elazar’s plan to retake the island has surpassed Lu’s darkest fears: He’s holding her and his son, Ben, captive in an endlessly shifting prison, forcing them to make a weapon that will guarantee Elazar’s success.

Escape is impossible―unless Lu becomes the ruthless soldier she hoped never to be again.

Vex failed to save Lu and Ben―and that torments him as much as his Shaking Sickness. With the disease worsening, Vex throws himself into the rebellion against Argrid. The remaining free armies are allied with the stream raider syndicates―and getting them to cooperate will take a strength Vex thought burned on a pyre six years ago.

Imprisoned, betrayed, and heartbroken, Ben is determined to end his father’s rampage. Watching Elazar sway the minds of Grace Loray as he did those of Argrid, Ben knows he has to play his father’s game of devotion to win this war. But how can a heretic prince defeat the Pious God?

As armies clash and magic rises, Lu, Vex, and Ben will confront their pasts . . . or lose their futures forever.

• Multiple POVs: A ruthless soldier, a tormented rebel, and a heretic prince each hold a piece of the puzzle to save Grace Loray, but their paths are fraught with betrayal.
• Enemies to Allies: The rebellion’s only hope lies in uniting the fractured stream raider syndicates with the free armies—a feat that will test Vex’s loyalties and strength.
• High Stakes Fantasy: Held captive by a ruthless king, Lu and Ben are forced to create a powerful magic weapon that could either save their island or ensure its destruction forever.
• Deadly Magic System: In a world built on magic plants and political turmoil, every choice could lead to revolution or ruin as a new war for Grace Loray begins.
