Four years have passed since the Child, Tane, and Care escaped the clutches of the Order of Garatos, and the world as they’ve known it is long gone. The Mountains of the Predicated, their new home, has been their safe haven with Mistacles, the Great Imagi as their guardian, but strange happenings and talk of legions of soldiers heading up the mountain side have all those who live there nervous. 

Pul, survivor of the hands of the Order, has made a name for himself as potential Prophezier but faces adversaries even among those he trusts most. And Munta, who has stood true and fair by his side, has been forced into war, becoming like those whom he despises most even at the breaking of his heart. 

Unexpected reunions. Terrifying revelations. All play a part in this sequel to the novel, “The Child of Venlet,” where nothing is as it seems.

"She is not ours to take--not yet, anyways. But retribution is ours to give. And I am eager to give."
