Jahan is a hero.


The man who saved the life of the crown prince in battle, helped win the revolution in Eren and earned the heart of the legendary Wildegarde reborn.

But he is also broken.

A man haunted by memories of the woman who experimented on him and his brothers as children.


So when the empire threatens war in retribution for Elanna's illegal sorcery, Jahan returns home to negotiate with the emperor on the Queen's behalf. But the world he left has changed - riots rock the city of Ida, his brother is missing and the crown prince refuses to speak to him.


His only hope of success seems to lie with the rebels in Ida. Yet, if he joins them, he will merely spur on the war he's desperate to avoid, and risk revealing himself as a sorcerer.


And then the witch hunters arrive at court, bringing Elanna in chains.

A heartbreaking, enchanting, edge-of-the-seat read that held me captive from start to finish!
