Every Thread of Light

In the kingdom of Magus, war and winter reign.

A descendant of the gods hunted for her bloodline faces a dangerous alliance to end her kingdom’s war.

The scholar who loved her, taken and tortured to protect her, might be lost forever.

The warrior who believes she can change the world confronts the violence in his past to secure the army they need.

The soldier with buried secrets may change the entire game.

And a shadow king is ready to claim his throne—and his queen...

Ophelia Dannan’s magic has reawakened, but at dire costs. Though she’s inherited the powers of a goddess, she’s haunted by the events in Wythe and the desperate choices she made to save the lives of her people.

As war breaks out, she and Falcon lick their wounds in the Underbelly, waiting for word on Hart and Rune. There, Ophelia plots to end the centuries-old battle for the throne by unearthing and destroying three elusive primordial relics—but she isn’t the only one who seeks them. If the Gray King retrieves the instruments first, the magic-born will rot in endless servitude, and if the relics fall into the Darkwielder’s hands, his vengeance may obliterate every mortal.

To save Magus from ruin, Ophelia finds herself making a bargain with a dangerous enemy—one that plunges her into a harrowing game of trust, politics, and dark secrets. To win, she’ll have to master her horrifying magic, mend her shattered soul, and decide how far she’ll go to shape her fate—or she and her kingdom will be destined for destruction.

In a war between gods and monarchs, one will rise.
