Falling Kingdoms series.
Cleo (unwilling host to the Kindred), sorceress Lucia, and their allies mistakenly believe Prince Magnus is dead.

Part political-thriller, part fantasy-adventure, this sixth book's large cast helps weave together the tangled, tense plot that culminates in an explosive series conclusion.

Falling Kingdoms series.
Everyone in Mytica is searching for the Kindred, four magical stones full of unimaginable power: evil King Gaius, conflicted Prince Magnus, scheming Princess Cleo, secretive Princess Lucia, hotheaded rebel Jonas, and the ruthless Kraeshian royal family. While this installment's writing is somewhat stilted, Game of Thrones fans will appreciate the abundance of intrigue, betrayal, and violence in this dark fantasy series.
