Can selfish Tylira make the ultimate sacrifice? Tylira's back from the world of Axum, but her arch-enemy has followed her. With the world collapsing, a people to protect, a new ancestor to reckon with, and armies intent on war, there's nowhere to flee and live the life she'd always wanted. Worse, she's the only one with the right kind of magic to stop Catane from his quest to rule Canderabai. Will she have the courage to make the ultimate sacrifice when it goes against everything she's ever wanted?
