Three legendary women. Two dying lands. One final call to battle. Princess Cassara Edoline's kingdom is shattered, her magic has failed, and her beloved brother is missing. Desperate to find him before she is forced to leave her cherished home and marry a stranger, Cassara vows to raise an army of her own and seek revenge. Time, however, is not on her side—and neither is the bloodthirsty Grayloft warrior sent to protect her. Avarielle Grayloft self-exiled from the West to hunt down the monsters invading her land and find a way to stop them. She's out for blood, she has a sword, and now an ancient family oath has made her responsible for the Princess of Edoline. But with a Circle witch hunting her, Avarielle isn't sure how long she can keep Cassara safe, despite the fiery blade she wields. Crimson Circle Elite Shirina has been tracking the elusive Grayloft warrior for weeks, tasked with returning Avarielle and her magical sword to the Circle where they belong. Shirina would prefer to simply kill the warrior and be done with it, but in the face of treachery stemming from within the Circle itself, she has no choice but to ally herself with her prey. As the Wall of Loss that separates the lands begins to crumble and darkness invades the Land of Light, all three women must heed to call to battle surging in their blood. But will their reluctant alliance and legendary powers be enough to save the world? Or will their differences lead to the destruction of all they hold dear? New editions of the beloved epic fantasy trilogy! An epic fantasy story in the vein of the Lord of the Rings, The Mistborn Saga, and the Wheel of Time, where darkness can only be stopped by those who stand against it, and the most insignificant lives can prove the most important. "e;From the first page, this tale grabbed me. Cassara and everyone she met came alive on the pages, and I couldn't stop turning them. And found myself thoroughly enjoying a tale told with humour despite its dark moments, with twists and turns that kept me reading long after bedtime. And kept bringing me to a halt to re-read moments that bit hard, and took my breath away. Remember that when you get to the end, and know that there are sequels. You're going to love this book."e; -- Ed Greenwood Internationally-bestselling author of SPELLFIRE and creator of The Forgotten Realms®"e;…having such a wonderful read with such a great ending means I can wholeheartedly tell everyone that you should definitely, absolutely and without question read all three books in the Heirs of Broken Land series. […] All in all, a perfect fantasy adventure!"e; --Sequential Tart"e;This is the fantasy epic I've been waiting for, with original magic, found family, and fully-realized, powerful female characters. That it's fast-paced yet breathes wonder in every setting is a fit tribute to Bilodeau's strengths as a writer. Highly Recommended. (I cannot wait for the next in the series.)"e; -- Julie Czerneda, author of "e;The Gossamer Mage"e;
