A sea-bound bargain and a dangerous escape

In this second book in the Song of the Dark series, Thomas’s bargain with the god of fear leaves him searching for a suitable man for her while struggling to control a power that brings on catastrophic storms. His only route to help runs through his ex-boyfriend, Charles, and a person held captive. Alongside Thomas’s story, Felix faces a camp that forbids magic and an escape plan whose stakes reach his soul. The two threads bring together mythic bargains, unstable magic, confinement, and the costs of seeking freedom, with the sea voyage framing Thomas’s predicament.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

Book overview

After striking a deal with an evil god, Thomas is now bound to fulfill his promise to her. But finding the perfect man for the god of fear is no easy task when he's stuck at sea on a skeleton crew run by a tyrant captain. To make matters worse, Thomas's newly discovered power is out of control, and he can't stop causing catastrophic storms. The only person who can help him is locked away, and the only way to communicate with her is through the last person he wants to see-his ex-boyfriend, Charles Southworth. Thomas quickly learns his deal with Tetra has only caused more problems than it solved, and if he can't learn to control his power, he could lose Mariana forever.

 

Meanwhile, Felix is trapped in a camp that claims to help magi like him, but magic is forbidden and other magi won't talk to him. His luck turns when an old frenemy approaches him with an uncertain offer of escape, devised by a friendly witch. Their plan becomes more dangerous as camp restrictions tighten, and Felix soon discovers the key to magic removal has been much closer to home than he ever knew. Escape may not be an option for him, but if he can't escape, the price is his soul.

 

Servant of Fear is the long-awaited second book in the Song of the Dark series. This action-packed romantasy adventure is an extension of the compelling and emotional journey from book 1.
