With the discovery of a new lead in Nimkoruguithu, Brenorra Warring has been drawn back into the game. At first, Bren hopes that all she'll have to do is solve another secret code, and then she'll be able to return to the Island and the people she has come to love, but it soon becomes clear that there is much more at stake than finding her father's last binder. 

When a devastating betrayal nearly costs Bren her life, trust becomes a treacherous commodity, and friends become suspects as the fight to bring the Coventry down moves from the jungle of the Colonies to the ballrooms of high society on the Altyran Coalition continent. Through it all, Bren must discover just how far she is willing to go to finish what her father started - and how much of herself she is willing to lose.

NOTE: This is the second book in the Shadows Rising series, and it isn't exactly a standalone. The plot will be understandable, but there are references to characters and events that are built from the first book in the series.  It is highly recommended that you start with Shadow Road. You won't be sorry you did.

Unfortunately for Felicie, that spy is one of her sister paladins. On a mission to discover why she has gone missing and what she discovered, Felicie Medee is sent into Lloegyr to discover what Gascony is planning. To that end, she has to make friends with the ambassador, Shiloh Cy, a man who's just as silly and frivolous as she pretends to be. Her mission is to find out what Lloegyr is doing- -and Cy's is to stop her at all costs. Raised in the secret caste of spies, Cy plays a role in public that no one has ever seen through or matched. Lady Paladin Felicie seems to be just as ridiculous as his persona and he can't understand why people are so concerned about her. Until he finds himself pitted against her real power and purpose. Lloegyr is neutral in the war, all three countries have made the agreement. But Felicie has to find what happened to her sister paladin while trying to discover what Gascony is planning all the while fighting against the first man that has ever been her equal.

The risk of betrayal made her feel unusually alive. When people turned against her, she wasn't surprised; it was like enveloping herself in an old, worn blanket-cold, and familiar in a terrible world. She knew all about this and accepted it like it was nothing, yet underneath this acceptance was a deeper truth. She had witnessed tragedies that questioned her sanity, experiences so many things that simply thinking about them threatened to consume her fully. She had witnessed tragedies that put her morals to the test, experiences so horrific that simply thinking about them threatened to overwhelm her. Shadows tormented her thoughts still to this day, speaking of unspeakable atrocities and anguish that she felt, both committed and received, until it was nearly unbearable. Until she's fully consumed. The voices called to her, offering a tempting escape, and she was on the verge of taking one more, irreversible step, away from a world that had shown her nothing but cruelty. She is, Kianna Vesperlynn. ⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪⋆౨ৎ˚⟡˖ ࣪ Book Cover Artist: My best friend, Sen ^^ IG: @chisenniii

Brenorra Warring's father is going crazy. That's the only conclusion Bren can make when a fire destroys everything they own, and his answer is to take a job in the uncivilized Coalition Colonial Region on the other side of the ocean. Then disaster strikes again. Her father is lost at sea, and Bren is left with nothing but the clothes on her back, the things in her father's satchel, and the discovery that he has been lying about his reasons for leaving. When more of her father's secrets come to light, it becomes clear that someone powerful is killing innocent people to keep those secrets hidden - and they are hunting for Bren. As the only person alive who can figure out what her father knew, Bren winds up forming an alliance with two very different men. The first has been tasked with keeping her safe, and will do anything it takes to bring down the organization stalking her, no matter the cost. The other is a brilliant but icy Naval hero who has been branded a wanted man by the enemy. With time running out and danger rising, Bren must solve the trail of coded messages her father left for her and find the last piece of the puzzle before it falls into the wrong hands. The only rule of this game: do not get caught.

Acting normal is not the same as being normal. No one knows that truth better than Suthe Montikwe. Born with the unlucky genes of a distant druith ancestor, she's had to hide her talents in order not to be outcast by society. Her strategy is to smile, keep quiet, and work hard. While that method may keep her safe, it's also alienated her from her neighbors and friends, and the worry that she may be discovered is never far from her thoughts. When her country sends out a warrant to capture anyone who practices magic, Suthe is forced to seek refuge elsewhere, all the while wondering at the sudden proclamation. Why has the government taken an interest in her, and when will she be able to return home? Unsatisfied with her lack of answers, Suthe decides to investigate. But the more she looks, the deeper she gets herself into trouble, and she comes to realize that this mystery does not involve her country alone. The threat of war looms on the horizon, and Suthe will need to put her trust in the strangers she meets, including a dangerous spy wanted for the betrayal of his own country. But most importantly, Suthe will need to trust herself, and her abilities, if she ever wants to see home again. ~*~Current cover by Amanda-Mae ~*~ ~*~Previous cover by italychick~*~
