Kara's battle to find the Talisman is fraught with danger. From deadly Shadow Eaters that would feed off her life force energy; to Quildor's elite team of trained assassins--- Kara must elude them all. Each day she enters the twisted trails inside the mountain with her sister-searcher, Jerrika, hoping to find success, until one day Jerrika is captured. Kara must rescue her at all costs. This might mean tracking the very assassins who she has been trying to elude. Kara discovers that her endeavor is actually a race against time as the planet itself prepares to adapt to the life forces on its surface. Can she save her people, and her sister, from possible annihilation? Cover art by: Cierrabarker9
