AlbakiReads Editorial A frontier-born conflict follows Nevare home
A frontier-born conflict follows Nevare home
The second volume of the Soldier Son Trilogy places Nevare Burvelle between the military future assigned to him and the consequences of his encounter with the Specks, a forest-dwelling people associated with magic and plague. After returning from the frontier post of Old Thares, he hopes to leave that experience behind, but illness reaches his own family and draws him toward a mysterious realm connected to the Specks. The novel extends an epic-fantasy storyline through tensions between inherited duty, family ties, frontier expansion, and an unfamiliar culture marked by both danger and power.
Good fit for readers who enjoy
- Teen and young adult readers of epic fantasy series
- Readers interested in military duty and frontier settings
- Fans of fantasy involving magic, plague, and divided loyalties

"One of the great modern fantasy writers"* returns with this enthralling follow-up to Shaman's Crossing--the second volume in her epic, international bestselling Soldier Son Trilogy.
*The Times
The second son of a second son, Nevare Burvelle was destined from birth to carry a sword, until a military assignment to the frontier post of Old Thares changed everything. There the wealthy young cadet came into contact with the Specks, a quiet, forest-dwelling folk gifted with magic and cursed with a terrible plague--both to which he succumbed.
Now nearly healed, Nevare has returned home, determined to bury the past. But his happy reunion turns dark when plague infects the Burvelles, setting off a chain of events that will lead Nevare into a strange and mysterious realm where danger, betrayal, and the beguiling Specks await.
