When the sultan unveils a twisted magic capable of devastating the balance forever, Loulie must gather her own magics and bargain a deadly alliance to thwart his plans. If she fails, she risks losing her family.
Meanwhile, exiled prince Mazen bin Malik has heard the rumors of unrest in the human cities. Faced with the destiny he has been fleeing his whole life, he must decide: Will he turn away from his brother’s lies to free himself, or will he rewrite his story to claim his inheritance?

To obtain revenge against the sultan that betrayed her, Aisha will have to master not just her death magic, but herself, before she is lost forever.
