Queen of Light - Paperback

by Eris Marriott (Author)

Everything has been turned upside down in the Kingdom of Velyasa. With news of Sunfall's destruction and Maverick's arrival, the nobility are split on how to best defend their kingdom. While Adelaide and Mars are convinced of Jupiter's growing threat, the kingdom stands divided on whether Jupiter or the former citizens of Sunfall are a greater peril. Adelaide and Mars must set out to convince the nobility of the need to prepare for war with Jupiter, all while finding new ways to protect the kingdom unaided.

Adelaide's responsibilities continue to grow. Between unraveling the mysteries of her unnamed, patron god and working with the scholars, Adelaide's power is rising. The Siraltona whispers to her, begging her to embrace her true nature, regardless of the consequences. She fears the very thing she once prayed for may become the root of her undoing. Determined, Adelaide grapples with what it means to have a magic as deadly as the Siraltona.

Evil is on the rise. Velyasa can't afford to stall the coming war much longer. The gods are growing impatient. Velyasa can't withstand their wrath again. This time, they may not be left standing.

Queen of Light sets Adelaide at the center stage of power. The magic she prayed for isn't at all what she thought; blessings from the gods always come with strings attached. This third installment of the Tales of the Shadow Folk will give readers a firsthand look at what it means to wear a crown weighed down by shadow, light, and wicked gifts from the gods.
