Shadowboxer: The Gathering Dark Pt. 1
A messenger rides hard for town, searching for Thystle Moran.
He brings an urgent message from the young cleric who helped Aeryn Ravane, Thystle, and four others kill a mad god in the White City. Colin tells Thystle that men have been searching for The Harbinger's tomb and every raven he's sent for Aeryn has disappeared. Someone doesn't want him to find Aeryn and her sword Aric, the blade that brought the mad god down.
With the fate of her closest friend unknown, Thystle returns to the city where the final battle took place. She rejoins Colin and his brother on a quest to learn the end game of the dark order of sorcerers searching for the hidden tomb. They quickly discover that the leader will stop at nothing to get what he wants.
As darkness gathers over Cathell once more, danger surrounds Thystle at every turn and those close to her become targets. She must find a way to protect those she loves, or she may lose everyone she has ever cared about.
A dark new entry in the epic series by award-winning author A.M. Rycroft. Its twists and turns will keep returning fans and newcomers alike turning the pages long into the night.

A.M. Rycroft's fantasy is fine story-telling. Her characters are strongly portrayed, the plots involved but not too complex, and the world-building filled with polished nuance.
