Branded (Marked Book II)

"They are bleeding us of every right we've ever earned."

Escaping was just the beginning.

Away from the Sapphire Court, Elian attempts to lead the life he left behind, but his ghosts cannot be forgotten. With old, vengeful enemies hiding in the shadows, and far darker monsters roaming his mind, Elian soon realises that the memories that make you cannot be forgotten.

Alensia itself is readying for war, sides are being chosen, and bonds made at birth are about to be ripped apart forever. The Faven's attacks on the court become more merciless by the day, and as their ambitions grow larger all three courts are placed in the firing line. Then a journey to the far reaches of Alensia reveals new worlds that were believed to have been swallowed by dust an era ago, and from them rise armies that could win the war before it even begins.

Within the Courts, a dangerous game continues, with new players that threaten to steal a throne, and old ones who threaten to annihilate Sapphire for their mistakes. Amongst it all are those that Elian left behind, suddenly thrust into a world that they never knew existed, and into a war they do not know how to fight. And when tragedy strikes, one's world is turned upside down forever...

Amidst it all, a prophecy long forgotten inches closer to being fulfilled:
When the last son of Sapphire turns to the fire's shade, only then will Ruby and Diamond fall...
