Description: Gods will war, the people will be transformed, and the land will split as six all-powerful siblings fight for control in the second book of David Dalglish's epic fantasy trilogy Astral Kingdoms.
The sky bleeds, and madness has overrun the capital. The immortal Sariel flees a city whose buildings breathe and whose people have transformed beyond recognition. With him is Queen Isabelle, who bears her own trauma after the ancient Tower Majestic's awakening. Together, Sariel and Isabelle flee west, to the tattered remains of her protectorate. After them, the creatures of Racliffe give chase, led by the rest of Sariel's ever-living siblings. But there is one sibling none have accounted for: Eist the Prophet. Eist has vowed to create a new reality: One with no crowns. No thrones. No gods.Review Quotes:
