This is the third story in the series! And this description could contain some spoilers. I suggest you go back and read Shadow's Edge and Between Shadows if you have not already. Everything seems to have settled down in the Magical Realm following Zander's death. Trixle has transitioned into her role on the High Council, and now the Realm has something new in mind for Mara. The witches are finally coming together and most are looking to the representative of their people, but there are a select few who have different plans. By now, Mara and her friends have learned to be prepared. Something else could always be waiting for them around the corner. Marx and Trixle both know the story, it's been passed down for generations. The bedtime story to scare the kids. The story to keep them in line, to strike fear in them if they ever deviate from their ideals. It's about the Realm's own personal boogie man. But what happens when those stories have some truth to them? What if the boogie man is real? Find out in Beyond the Shadows
