Magic and danger abound in the second book in a series of fanciful, action-packed adventure; (Publishers Weekly, starred review) from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Fablehaven and Beyonders series.

Cole Randolph never meant to come to The Outskirts, but when his friends were kidnapped on Halloween he had to try and save them. Now he's trapped in a world that lies between wakefulness and dreaming, reality and imagination, life and death.

Cole's search for his friends has led him to Elloweer, another of the five kingdoms that make up The Outskirts. He's accompanied by Mira, Twitch, and Jace, new friends he's met here in the Outskirts who each have their own important missions.

The group is following news that Mira's sister, Honor, could be in danger. However, Cole and Mira are soon the ones facing direct threat, and must resort to a fascinating new kind of magic to protect themselves. Their journey brings them across familiar faces, some more welcome than others, until their paths ultimately cross with the infamous man known throughout Elloweer as the Rogue Knight.

Will he turn out to be an unstoppable enemy, or a key ally?

Every move is filled with danger as Cole and his new friends try and outwit the High King, who will stop at nothing to regain what he has lost.

Brandon Mull

Brandon Mull

Brandon Mull has a rare talent for turning childhood daydreams into epic adventures that captivate millions of readers around the world. His fantasy novels, from the beloved Fablehaven series to the sweeping sagas of Beyonders, Five Kingdoms, and Dragonwatch, invite readers into hidden realms where magic lives alongside danger, and the choices of ordinary kids can change the fate of entire worlds.

Born in California in 1974 and raised with an imagination that never seemed to rest, Mull spent much of his childhood inventing elaborate games and imagining creatures that lurked just out of sight. That creative spark carried into his studies at Brigham Young University, where he not only honed his storytelling voice but also embraced performance as part of a sketch comedy troupe. After graduation he worked a string of day jobs—from movie promoter to filing clerk—while quietly chasing the stories that filled his mind.

His breakthrough came in 2006 with Fablehaven, a series that quickly grew into an international phenomenon, translated into dozens of languages and selling millions of copies. Known for balancing humor with heart, Mull creates characters who feel both fantastical and real, grounding their struggles in themes of courage, friendship, and moral choice. His school visits and public talks have inspired young readers to see books not as homework but as portals to adventure.

Mull continues to expand his imaginative reach. With the upcoming Guardians trilogy, beginning with Forbidden Mountain in 2026, he is venturing into a wholly original world built on spiritual bonds and epic conflicts, a story he has envisioned for over a decade. The project marks his most ambitious work yet, promising an even grander scope while staying true to the wonder and danger that define his storytelling.

Now living in Utah with his family, Mull writes with the same sense of wonder that guided his boyhood adventures. His books have become treasured gateways for new generations of fantasy readers, offering not just escape, but a reminder of the courage and creativity hidden in us all.
