At the risk of losing the bond with her beloved horse, a princess must save her people—and the man she loves—from an ancient evil threatening to consume her home.
Zara had one shot to defeat her enemy before it regained its full power. She missed. Now the ancient Devourer is no longer content to lurk in the shadows, relentlessly hunting magic and warping the wind that she once trusted. Meanwhile, Zara is haunted by visions of the man she loves, imprisoned and tortured beyond her reach. Every instinct urges her to fly back on her newly bonded eagle and save him—but doing so may doom them both.
Determined to save Talon and stop the Devourer before it targets her people, Zara searches for answers. Instead, she uncovers dangerous secrets her mother has hidden for years—truths tied to her magic, her bond with her beloved horse, and the origins of the evil threatening her world.
Unwilling to let Zara risk herself for him, Talon escapes captivity into an empire already falling to the Devourer’s corruption. Hunted by undead Eagle Riders, he races to find Zara, desperate to help secure the alliance that could save both their peoples.
But to stop this monstrous being, Zara will be forced to sacrifice more than she can imagine—and loving Talon may be her most dangerous choice of all.
