He escaped the city that feared his magic. Now he must survive the empire that teaches it.
Still reeling from loss and hunted by the ruling Houses of Caesea, Kincaid journeys east in search of the Empire of a Thousand Spears-a land where magic is studied, respected... and feared in entirely new ways. But his power is wild, unpredictable. And when he arrives in the ancient capital, the scholars turn their backs on him. Cast out and directionless, Kincaid is drawn into the hidden circles of the Academy-where a group of rebellious students are bending the rules and chasing the forbidden. Among these rogue sorcerers, he finds new companions. Misfits and outcasts like himself. Together, they uncover secrets buried deep within the Schools of Magic-secrets that threaten to upend everything the Empire believes. As Kincaid's time-twisting magic grows stronger and stranger, he must face an impossible choice: follow the rules of those who rejected him... or forge a dangerous new path that could reshape magic itself.
Book Two of The Chronomancer Series dives deeper into rebellion, reckoning, and the true cost of power. A thrilling fantasy adventure full of magic, found family, and the courage to change your fate.
