Sara Raasch Knihy

Meira by udělala cokoli pro záchranu světa. Nejdříve se ale musí naučit ovládat svou magii. Když jí vůdce tajného řádu z Paisly nabídne, že ji bude učit, neváhá ani chvíli. Ale Rozklad může porazit jen jediným způsobem – bude muset sestoupit do labyrintu pod Střídavými královstvími, vzdát se své magie a učinit tu největší možnou oběť. Mather se rozhodl najít a zachránit svou královnu, ale s plánovaným útokem na Angrova království se jeho cíl stále vzdaluje. A Ceridwen, které Angra zabil bratra a ukradl zemi, se snaží zachránit svůj lid i svou lásku. Meira, Mather a Ceridwen musí spojit všechna království Primorie, jinak ztratí všechno.

Dívka se zlomeným srdcem a nelítostná bojovnice. Před šestnácti lety bylo zničeno Zimní království a jeho území dobylo Jaro. Pobili královskou rodinu a obyvatele uvěznili. A v tu chvíli vyprchala ze Zimy všechna magie… Nyní je jedinou nadějí tohoto království osm přeživších, kterým se podařilo utéct a kteří čekají na svou příležitost. Chtějí získat zpět své království a magii. Meira je jednou z nich. Celý život prožila jako uprchlík, nepoznala své rodiče a generál Zimy ji vychoval jako válečnici. Avšak i jako nelítostná bojovnice se zamilovala… A zamilovala se do nepravého, do budoucího krále Zimy Mathera. I se zlomeným srdcem je ale rozhodnutá udělat cokoli, aby její království získalo svobodu. Když uprchlíci zjistí, kde je ukrytý magický medailon patřící bývalé královně, Meira se ho pokusí získat. A vstoupí do světa boje o moc, temné magie, ale i dvorských intrik a velkých plesů, v němž jednoho dne zjistí, že její osud nikdy nebyl v jejích vlastních rukou.

Zimní království bylo osvobozeno, ale krušné chvilky ještě nekončí. Aby Meira ochránila svůj lid, dovolí Cordellu kopat v zimních dolech. Tam ale najdou něco mocného a nebezpečného – magickou propast. Theron chce využít tento nález k poražení zla, ale Meira se bojí, co s sebou taková síla může přinést. Když se na zemi posledně objevilo tolik magie, povstal velký Rozklad. Proto nechce nechat nic náhodě a klidně se postaví i Theronovi. Ale nevystaví i tak své lidi nebezpečí? Boje o moc sílí. Theron touží po magii, Mather bojuje za svobodu a Meira se začíná ptát sama sebe, jestli bojuje jen za Zimu, nebo za celý svět.

Imprisoned, betrayed, and heartbroken, Ben is determined to end his father's rampage. Watching Elazar sway the minds of Grace Loray as he did those of Argrid, Ben knows he has to play his father's game of devotion to win this war. But how can a heretic prince defeat the Pious God?
