Publisher's summary

In this “glorious tapestry of magic and murderous gods” (Buzzfeed News) each heir walks a dangerous path, attempting to undo the damage the gods have wrought across the four realms, but they live on borrowed time—and not all of them will survive.

A cataclysmic battle to save the city of Nexus has left the four noble heirs scattered across the realms.

Taesia, the shadow-wielding rebel of House Lastrider, and Nikolas, the reluctant soldier of House Cyr, have been cast into Noctus, the realm of eternal night. But they are not alone. The dangerous and unpredictable god of light has traveled with them, and he will do anything in his power to destroy Noctus in his bid for cosmic control.

Risha, the peacekeeping necromancer of House Vakara, must navigate her way through Mortri, the realm of death. But still she cannot help the wayward spirits, nor does she have any idea how to return home. All she knows is that no mortal can survive for long in Mortri. And the creatures that prowl the realm of death don't take kindly to the living.

Angelica, the stubborn elementalist of House Mardova, is on her own in Vitae, trying to keep Nexus from unraveling. But Angelica secretly suffers from an illness that her god left in her veins. And when she is sent on a delicate diplomatic mission, she knows that any weakness will have disastrous repercussions for her family, her kingdom, and her dreams of the throne.

All will encounter old friends and new enemies as they attempt to restore the balance of the universe. But the gods grow stronger. And their descendants will need more than their magic and their wits to survive the war that is coming...

Enjoyed it, a strong second book in the series

The narrator gave a great performance. The story was complicated but well organized so easy to follow. Looking forward to the next in the series.

Great story weaving

Love the way the author makes all the characters interesting with their own agency and each has a storyline that aligns with their own motivations. Yet none of the storylines are trite or boring. And somehow they manage to bring it all together in the end. I really hope there’s another one coming soon!

Multi POV masterpiece

It has everything. Building on the foundation of City of Dusk, this book takes it up a notch. Every character has so much depth, every plot line is compelling. I am both glad and sad that I finished this book.

Just as great as the first

I think I loved this book more than the first one. The audiobook is wonderful because of the different voices the narrator does for each character
I can’t wait for book three!!!!!
