Tides of Gold and Oblivion

Seek the darkness…
And the darkness will seek you.

In the wake of the battle between the Cyllenians and the Strangers, Maila has left behind the life she once knew—her city, her friends, and the safety of the walls. But with her newfound abilities and the family she’s found in Kieran, Nyathera, and the Strangers, the future is full of possibilities.

That is, until the Strangers make a difficult choice that changes everything.

Terrified that Kieran will lose control of his magic again, the grieving Strangers decide that he is no longer welcome at camp. And so begins the journey to locate Kieran’s only hope of learning to manage his powers—his father’s family, the dangerous and enigmatic Oryxians.

As Maila supports Kieran in his search for the Oryxians, she uncovers answers to her own questions along the way, including hard truths that leave her reeling. With her future with Kieran looking uncertain, her list of enemies growing larger by the day, and the threat of losing her new family forever, Maila has no choice but to risk it all—her life, her home, and her heart.
