De: Moira Buffini

Narrado por: Ami Okumura Jones, Antonia Beamish, Joe Gaminara, Katy Sobey, Saffron Coomber, Sam Crerar

The hugely anticipated second instalment in the hottest dystopian fantasy trilogy of the decade! Who will triumph? Those with songlight, or those without?

Welcome back to a world where songlight - or telepathy - is either your greatest power or your greatest curse.

Elsa is on the run and is urgently seeking a safe haven.

Nightingale is being held captive and forced to use her songlight against her own people.

Piper has been promoted up the ranks of the Airmen, where nothing but bloodshed is demanded of him.

Rye has stumbled across an incredible airship, the likes of which has never been seen before ...

All four are united by their desire for peace.

But peace between the Aylish and Brightland feels more fragile than ever.

And there is a new threat, not just to Brightland, but to Ayland and the world beyond. The airship that Rye has discovered is owned by the Sealanders, a race of elite Torches, recently returned to Earth.

The future of civilisation is on a knife edge, with those from Brightland wanting to stamp out songlight, those from Ayland wanting harmony and those from Sealand wanting songlight to rein, whatever the costs ...

A sequel to rival all others, proving this to be the most exciting trilogy to have been published for decades!

Captivating beyond belief!

Seldomly - if ever - have all parallel strands of storytelling been equally captivating. Regardless of which character stands centre stage, the pace, depth, and excitement remain at the highest level throughout. Moira Buffini builds a detailed, harrowing universe, one that makes us question human nature, and draw parallels to our real society. This is a true feat of a book series.

This is my first review - felt compelled to write it because this book series needs attention because it deserves to be HUGE.

The wonderful narration with the full cast helps bring it to life in the most delicious way.

5 Stars all around!
