Publisher's Synopsis
The twins are still missing.Months have passed but Emiel searches still. Amiya and Nandi are out there somewhere, and no predator or monster, or creature from the underworld will stop him from saving his daughters. But there is a cost. As Emiel embraces the power of the essences, will he learn to control them or will they destroy him before he has a chance to save his beloved twins? Shurza is free.Once contained but now unleashed, Shurza, the blight essence, casts its lengthening shadow across Marai, leaving death and ruin in its wake. With it's escape, so too have awakened the fallen. The powerful servants of Shurza scheme against one another, using the people of Marai and Khatal as their unwitting pawns in a play to bring the Order of Magi to its knees and free themselves from their binding with Shurza. The Illuminarians awaken.Heroes from ages long past awaken once more. For millennia and more they were trapped in the void prison with the fallen and Shurza, and it has taken a toll. Weakened and mentally damaged, the illuminarians hold the power to defeat the fallen and destroy Shurza, or tear the world apart.
Praise for Ramón Terrell
Unleashed
Fast paced, packed with action and engaging dialogue, Unleashed was a book I thoroughly enjoyed.
--Brandon Sanderson, New York Times bestselling author of Stormlight Archive
Running from the Night
Terrell plunges his characters into the action and drives them through the landscape around Vancouver B.C. from terror to terror until the reader is left breathless, trying to see a way for Jelani and his friends to survive another day.
--Jody Lynn Nye, New York Times bestselling author of Myth-Fits
Out of Ordure
It's a fun and sprightly tale, a tongue-in-cheek take on the 'other' tasks that fairies might have to do in addition to painting frost on windows or coaxing buds to open or helping kittens learn to mew.
Terrell dives into his tale with enthusiasm and imagination.
--Robin Hobb, New York Times bestselling author of Fitz and the Fool Trilogy
