Get lost in the world of the Nissera Chronicles in this electrifying short story about a bold heroine up against an alchemist brewing an unfathomable evil. Companion to Kingdom of Ash and Briars, a Kirkus Reviews Best Teen Book of the Year.
Welcome to Nissera, land of three kingdoms and home to spectacular magic.
Across the realm, two powerful sorceresses are marshalling their armies, preparing for a climactic battle to decide the fate of their world. But in a hay-filled barn in the countryside, a small group of spies led by a courageous young warrior named Drell launches an offensive to root out the identity of a shadowy alchemist experimenting with a deadly weapon. If Drell’s team is successful, the forces of good have a shot at prevailing. If they fail, it could turn the tide against them. In the war to save Nissera, every battle counts—including those fought on the smallest fronts.
