Relics of Ruin

From a rising star in epic fantasy comes the captivating second novel in a trilogy featuring an unlikely team who must find a way to work together and solve an empire-spanning mystery to defend the last place they call home.

Amadea Gintanas and her archivists solved a brutal murder, dispelling a grave conspiracy against the empire in the process. But danger still looms. When Quill and Richa discover the missing bones of a saint in a roadside shrine, the empire's fragile equilibrium is put at risk. How this precious relic vanished from its sealed vault is a mystery. The threat posed by this theft is all too clear.

The archivists must once again unearth the clues--and quickly. For an old enemy is gathering strength beyond the Salt Wall. And it will not hold him for long.

"Detailed and mysterious, a place to explore and relish. Highly recommended!" ―R. A. Salvatore, author of "The Legends of Drizzt"
