About this ebook

It's been many months since Rafel ventured over Barl's Mountains into the unknown, in a desperate bid to seek help for their ravaged land. With his father's Weather Magic exhausted, there seemed no other hope. Now this too has died.

Only Deenie believes Rafel still lives, sensing her brother in tortured dreams. She also knows she must try to find him, as only Rafel's talents could heal their land. The prospect terrifies Deenie, yet she sees no other choice.

She soon learns of a dangerous new power. Deenie comes to suspect that not only is her brother involved, but that the evil their father destroyed is somehow reborn. And if she can't save Rafel, then through him, Morg's vast power could once again command their world.

Ratings and reviews

The best book in the series! Never thought Deenie could be so interesting. But overall the book was amazing, the pace was of this installment was really good. I read a lot of pages as soon as I bought the book, and to find my self reading it as soon I woke the next morning. I was surprised with alot of things that went on in the book. For example Dathne died, Arlin actually stepping up to the plate. But Karren Miller is an great author, it was this series that made me read a lot of her books and many more.
