Along her interesting journey, she finds dangers mages and also allies. Her next task is to enter the Unknown Space, a place that is surrounded by dark matter, and it is a very deadly combination.

Unpredictable, with twists all the way to the end. What an incredible world built by Marie Judson. This journey of Yanda's is absolutely thrilling, with twists on every page turn.
