Ancient curses, hidden artifacts, and forbidden magic pull against the tides of destiny in the fourth installment of the Age of Azuria high fantasy series. With so much at stake, found families and star-crossed lovers face the ultimate test. Do our heroes have what it takes to seize hold of the threads of fate, choose one another, and survive the trials before them?
Impossible choices await Iellieth within an ancient elven forest, where the stakes for her friends and her world grow ever more dire. But soon enough, she will find that the ancients hid more than the final piece of the planar seal within the woods. The implications of their long-buried secrets may alter not only her fate, but Azuria’s as well.
For Teodric, the threat against his father presses ever more strongly upon his mind. He knows what torments the pirate queen Syleste is capable of inflicting. Genevieve, too, prepares to fulfill the next stage of her quest to aid the daimon of the Brightlands. A great many dangers and multiple realms stand between her and the pack.
Further north, Persephonie hides an injured Rennear and Jez within a strange muster, breaking the saudad’s long-standing rule that no one besides themselves should travel the threads of fate.
In another plane altogether, Briseras continues her search for her quarry, finding instead a wounded nobleman wandering in the woods. But is he bait sent from the vampire to lure her into a trap or is he part of her destiny in Steymhorod, a thread woven long ago?
Over all of this, Yvayne plots her next move, ready, finally, to take her place upon the world stage as the leader of the lorekeeper rebels. But the fae may be too late-strange monsters teem within the forests of the Elven Realms and creatures of shadow invade the Brightlands. Her enemies have not been dormant while waiting for the chosen one to reappear. When Lucien spies his chance, he takes it-hoping for the ruin of all.
In the face of impossible choices, who will ascend to the heights of their destiny? And who, in failing to rise, will condemn themselves and their loved ones to a darkness unimaginable?
