About this title

From the Inside Flap:

A new title in the bestselling The Edge Chronicles series

The sixth part of this dramatic and exuberant fantasy adventure series.

This is the second title to feature young librarian-knight, Rook, as he and his co-rebels combine forces to challenge the dark might of the Guardians of the Night who are taking more and more of the power in the Edgeworld. The oily Vox, once Most High Academe, and now a puppet ruler in New Sanctaphrax, becomes the focus in this dramatic and thrilling new adventure which is embellished throughout with marvellously imaginative black and white illustrations.
