What if the fate of the world lay in your hands?

Keix sets off on her journey to find her father and meets a mysterious Kulcan who offers to take her to her destination.

Back at Atros, Zej and the rest of the gang, thinking that the organization had kidnapped Keix, hatch a plan for a rescue mission. But they soon gain knowledge of a vicious group whose aim is to bring the world to its knees.

Racing against time, Zej has to find Keix and convince her to help the people who had previously betrayed her.

With innocent lives at stake, will Keix agree to the uneasy alliance, and put her own goals on the line again to go in blind against an enemy that’s even more ruthless than Atros?

    — Vivian Teo, author of My BFF is an Alien series

  • “With a razor-sharp plot and strong emotional arc, the sequel to Leslie W’s The Night of Legends raises the stakes and makes for a dangerously compelling read that is impossible to put down and hard to forget.”

    — Joyce Chua, author of The Children of the Desert trilogy

  • “Leslie W weaves magic into her words to make each action scene as vivid as if you were watching a movie. The world she’s built is foreign yet familiar in its themes, with compelling characters that will stay with you long after you’ve turned the last page."

    — Catherine Dellosa, author of Of Myths and Men

  • “A page-turner at every chapter. Riveting, action-packed, and full of exciting plot twists, I couldn’t put it down. The world-building is stupendous, peopled by relatable characters that I rooted for. Leslie W’s storytelling prowess and prose left me wanting more. ”

    — Eva Wong Nava, award-winning author of The House of Little Sisters

  • "Keix, an awakened soldier trying to find her own way, is the perfect foil to guide us through the 1984esque Star Wars setting—paper-thin trapezoidal buildings, mystical creatures like haagis and shihs, and shady organizations trying to control magic for the ‘public good’. I highly recommend!"

    — Nabeel Ismeer, author of The Hunter’s Walk
