The riveting conclusion to Glenda Larke's acclaimed MIRAGE MAKERS trilogy.
Ligea's son, Arrant, leaves Tyrans for Kardiastan to take his place as Mirager-heir, while Ligea prepares to halt an insurrection. But Arrant's skills as a Magoroth are dangerously inconsistent, and his father, Temellin, finds it difficult to communicate with this secretive young man he barely knows.
Arrant's singular ability to communicate with his half-brother, Tarran - a part of the collective mind known as the Mirage Makers - leads them both towards the possibility of a tragic clash with the encroaching Ravage.
As Arrant's enemies among the Magoroth plot to ruin his family and his future as heir, he begins to realise there is a greater mystery to solve if he is to prevail.
Glenda Larke is magical. If you don't read her, you're missing out on a treat. * Karen Miller, bestselling author of The Innocent Mage; 'Glenda Larke is a fabulous writer. I adore the rich landscapes, the complicated and believable characters who deal with life as real people not as caricatures, and the story-lines that join thoughtfu *
Kate Elliott * 'Larke has a talent for world building and a fondness for unstable landscapes ... It's also great fun.’ *
BARBARA Davies, STARBURST MAGAZINE * 'A satisfying end to a trilogy that…does what it does very well’ *
SFX * 'I had serious difficulty in putting the book down... very strongly written and allows for more shades of grey than many fantasy novels do, but also a richly imagined and thoroughly believable world…’ *
