Publisher's Synopsis
FOR FANS OF A GAME OF THRONES, MISTBORN, CODEX ALERA, AND THE WHEEL OF TIME. Strings of life and color, essences, are woven in a tattered historical tapestry. True power is wielded by those who can manipulate and break this world fabric. Or heal it. Again. Thousands of years ago, the Sorceress destroyed most of the world. But those are myths, stories to frighten children, or so A'banna and her people are taught. When blue stars appear, A'banna discovers the truth. Unwilling to stay the Sorceress' high priestess, A'banna dares journey across a hostile land while pursued by the Sorceress and her monstrous servants. In the wilderness, a group awaits A'banna and the answers she knows. Sent on a mission to prevent or gather intelligence for a looming global war, Agent Bedel and his cohorts need her knowledge. The myths and legends detail a prophetic magical cycle in which the Sorceress will break the world again. They also foretell A'banna and Bedel's deaths. To break prophecy, A'banna and Bedel face the greatest race of their lives: to escape the Sorceress' realm and expose her secrets before war masks the horrors to come. A Seed of Three is the companion novel to The Shattering of Chains.
