Old fay magic. A new clan chief. And a crooked necromancer-has he brought back Linden’s worst nightmare? **2022 B.R.A.G. Medallion Award**

Although Linden is now a Master Mage, she’s struggling to adjust to her new duties. Her advisors are more concerned with keeping her safe than listening to her warnings about the dark magic gathering along the borders.

Linden must team up with Mordahn’s arrogant nephew to destroy the places of power-but will they be able to save their homeland before it’s too late?
