Finding a portal to a magical realm really isn't all it's cracked up to be. Cassian's been enslaved tortured, nearly executed, hunted for sport, and finally narrowly escaped the English forces with his life. Now he's determined to get back to his friends in Wales and try to help them set things right...before his own time runs out. Facing enemies in the past and the present, Cassian must maintain control in two timelines if he hopes to save his new allies, and himself. Unholy alliances, and of course kidnappings, abound. No foxes were harmed in the writing of this book, but plenty of people were. Ahem. Dead people live, living people die. Sword fights. Sieges. Torture. Revenge. Dark humor. Edmund Crouchback is still the main antagonist and the funniest character. Dragons are here. Edward the Second is still a precious cinnamon roll. Everyone is some level of bisexual disaster. Yes you may learn like 1/2 a thing about the 1200s but that's a risk you're going to have to take. Trigger/ Content Warning: Same as the previous book. Some profanity. Some dark humor. The narrating character has a traumatic past of abuse which is mentioned briefly. Trauma/loss are discussed. Some fantasy violence/peril. Similar gore as 'Stranger Things' or the 'Hunger Games'.
