Lacey Darkwater is dead to the world. She has been reborn as Mithavan’ara-Khan. The mages life is nothing more than death and pain. Abandoned by her family, shunned by her friends and hunted by an evil so absolute it cannot be measured.
The world she travels is a bitter, blasted land of war. She now has nowhere to turn but inside herself. Caught in a struggle of power between what is and what was, Lacey must find the answers she needs without understanding the questions.
Can the mage save her world? Is she able to harness the ultimate power? Will she help her friends or leave them dying in the dust?

I liked this second book even more than the first. The author Has really found his groove. I liked Lacey before, but I love her now. She is such a strong lead character I don't see how this story could be told from any other way. The dialog and world-building are as strong as an author who has been writing for a long time.
