Synopsis

Some people are destined for greatness. Goffren is just trying to survive it.

Strange murders are happening at shimmering castle Charmont, and children are vanishing all across the ancient kingdom. Goffren—the orphaned “ghost of Slaathwick” and the only Verlokken boy anyone’s seen in generations— is reluctantly pulled in to solve the mystery.

Dragging two new friends along with him, Lydianna, a bold festival performer, and Halstrohm, a solemn apprentice magician, their adventures will take them through portals and ancient corridors, across storm-slashed water, and into the clutches of creatures and dark powers that should not exist.

And when fate corners him, Goffren must decide whether to unleash the full, terrifying might of his Verlokken heritage…or risk losing everything—and everyone—again.

Heartfelt, harrowing, and full of wondrous imagination, this thrilling sequel proves that even the most cursed boy can change the fate of a kingdom. Perfect for fans of Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, Golden Compass, Septimus Heap, and The Graveyard Book, and magical adventures full of danger, humor, heart, and high-stakes fantasy.
