About the book
From New York Times bestselling author Amy Ewing comes the second book in an epic fantasy duology that School Library Journal called “rich and complex.” Perfect for fans of Snow Like Ashes, These Broken Stars, and Magonia!
Sera has finally recognized the true power of her Cerulean blood. But in order to return home, she’ll need help from Agnes, Leo, and their grandmother—the only person with knowledge about the mysterious island of Braxos, where the Cerulean tether is anchored. Though the journey will be treacherous, Sera will risk anything to see her City again.
Meanwhile, the High Priestess’s power has reached new heights in the City Above the Sky. And when Leela begins having visions of Sera, alive, she knows she’s the key to saving the City. But to bring Sera home, Leela must channel the strength, courage, and curiosity that once got her friend exiled.
With the help of friends, family, and Cerulean magic, Leela and Sera could soon return to their normal lives. But when that time comes, will Leela be able to serve her City as blindly as she once did? And will Sera be able to leave everything and everyone she’s grown to love on the planet behind?
- Second Book in a Series: Continue the epic fantasy adventure that began in The Cerulean. This sequel plunges readers deeper into a world of magic, danger, and impossible choices.
- Dual POV: Experience the story from two perspectives: Sera, fighting her way back home on a dangerous planet, and Leela, risking everything to uncover a conspiracy in the City Above the Sky.
- Found Family: Exiled and alone, Sera must learn to trust her new allies, the twins Agnes and Leo, whose own family secrets could be the key to her quest—or their shared undoing.
- Political Intrigue: Navigate a treacherous world of warring queens and powerful families, where helping Sera could be an act of treason and every alliance is fragile.
- YA Fantasy Romance: He was her captor; now he’s her guide. As Sera and Leo journey together, their reluctant alliance blossoms into a slow-burn romance that will force Sera to choose between her old home and her new heart.
