Many years from now, in a world in which we have all been forgotten, the Caldera of Cinder erupts and Andalon descends into chaos.

These dark administrators harvest children who could potentially manipulate the elements, stealing their abilities for a darker purpose. The heroes of this tale include Eusari Thorinson, kidnapped and sold at a young age. She must choose vengeance against those responsible for the pain she endured in evil hands, or choose to challenge the Falconers beside Braen Braston - a quiet outcast from the northern kingdom of Fjorik. Across the continent Robert Esterling fights to come of age and struggles with physical limitations while leading a civil war against his usurper brother - the leader chosen by the Falconers.

War has found Andalon unprepared.

This story also journeys to the southern continent as a father fights to reunite his family, enlisting the aid of a seasick landlubber and a fiery teen wielding her power without caution.

A new danger threatens Andalon from across the sea, as Chancellor Jakata makes plans to send modern troops to quell the insurrection. While he struggles against the rise of terror in his own continent, a sister must decide whether to risk her life and reputation to interfere in or aid the plans made by her brother stirring up the chaos in Andalon.

The Battle for Andalon is on and all Hands are on Deck!”

”In this dystopian vision, author T.B.Phillips has created a page-turner - a book that is challenging to read, but a very rewarding one. The writing style is cinematic, the pace is good, and the characters are captivating. I especially like the female heroines, who are feisty warriors. There is plenty of contrast in the depiction of characters and they feel real because of their human flaws. The epic sea-battles are especially convincing, since the author draws on a world he knows well.

The best thing about this book is the detailed world-building. There is a sense of mystery and a world beyond the book, a magical or spiritual dimension which is explored by the emotants and their animal familiars. Co-existing with this idea of magic and prophecy, is the reality of political machinations and a brutish world where duplicity reigns. The book is thought-provoking." - Suzy Davies, ⭑⭑⭑⭑⭑
