From and award-winning author comes the second book of the Sundered Web Series, hailed as Dark fantasy at its best.
For humankind, she would be the monsters' monster. She would be their fear in the night. She would be the terror come for them.
Elika crosses the Bridge to Magic to find a new world order, where the realm of man is ruled by magic and nothing is as it seems. Mages run the streets, their masters, the magic-wielding tsaren, war with each other, but it is men who pay the price with their lives.
When Elika learns a shattering truth about the mages' true nature, she cannot stand idly by, not when her own untapped gifts may yet shift the balance of power back into the hands of men. But her dabbling in the power she does not understand draws the attention of the dreaded demigod Syn'Moreg.
She must now outwit the shadow that hunts her, whilst seeking a way to free mankind from their oppressors, no matter the price to her soul. Dark grows her heart, and to darkness it reaches for that which the shadow denies.
As whispers of newly found heir to the Sacred Crowns grow to cries of war, Elika comes to realize that she may not be the savior of mankind after all, but their doom. For in destroying the monsters she has become one of them. Elika must choose between mankind's salvation and the man she loves, the only one who now stands in the way of her destructive magic.
How could she live in a world where nothing was certain? Where reality was as cutting as a sword and yet as waning as a dream?
