Death Seeker

"Magic doesn't fix everything," the mage agreed, "but if it doesn't fix this, we're all dead."

Torn apart by Ryou's betrayal, Etienne and Zuri must find a way to circumvent the Pirate Queen's plans and regain their freedom. But when the devious Queen Kyomi demands that Etienne serve her, he has no choice but to assist in retrieving the object she desires, even if Ryou is his captor and guard. Mystery-shrouded magic and a broken heart consume Etienne.

Darkness and twisted thoughts are Zuri's constant companions. She doesn't know why she's tormented by thoughts of her traumatic past, but the struggle to simply be herself is as great as any battle. While Etienne saves her body, Zuri realizes she has to find a way to save her heartelse keeping her body alive is pointless. A journey of healing and growth is needed, but taking the first step is often the hardest part.

Loyalty is the only thing Ryou has left, but he cannot decide who he should be loyal to. His Queen, the fierce and powerful Kyomi, who pulled him from a Port Carcarac alley and set him to sail, the powerful mage who promises a cure for Ryou, or to himself?

Join Etienne, Zuri, and Ryou on the final leg of their journey as the fate of Illygad hangs in the balance once more.

What readers are saying:

"I really enjoyed this sequel. It is a story of hardship, struggles, growth, and redemption, with positive attitudes towards personal challenges without diminishing their darkness or problematic effects. The approach to trauma, healing, and inner struggle is especially rewarding to read because it is so very honest about it." Franz K

"Your readers live amongst your characters. We experience their pain, their exhaustion, their fear, their love, their victories, and their losses. Having finished the book just moments ago, I find myself tired, but so incredibly content. I feel as if I have truly lived this exhausting, incredible, terrifying, fantastic journey myself." Mary R
