Goodreads Blurb:
It’s been three months since the Winterians
were freed and Spring’s king, Angra, disappeared – thanks largely to the help
of Cordell.
Meira just wants her people to be safe. When
Cordellan debt forces the Winterians to dig their mimes for payment, they
unearth something powerful and possibly dangerous: Primoria’s lost chasm of
magic. Theron sees this find as an opportunity – with this much magic, the
world can finally stand against threats like Angra. But Meira fears the danger
the chasm poses – the last time the world had access to so much magic, it spawned
the Decay. So when the king of Cordell orders the two on a mission across the
kingdoms of Primoria to discover the chasm’s secrets, Meira plans to use the
trip to garner support to keep the chasm shut and Winter safe – even if it
means clashing with Theron. But can she do so without endangering the people
she loves?
Mather just wants to be free. The horrors
inflicted on the Winterians hang fresh and raw in Januari – leaving Winter
vulnerable to Cordell’s growing oppression. When Meira leaves to search for
allies, he decides to take Winter’s security into his own hands. Can he rebuild
his broken kingdom and protect them from new threats?
As the web of power and deception weaves
tighter, Theron fights for magic, Mather fights for freedom – and Meira starts
to wonder if she should be fighting not just for Winter, but for the world.
