What would you risk for family?

In the second installment of Night's Edge, Bannan Larmensu, the truthseer who won Jenn Nalynn's heart, learns his brother-in-law was sent as a peace envoy to Channen, capitol of the mysterious domain of Mellynne, and has disappeared. When Bannan's young nephews arrive in Marrowdell, he fears the worst, that his sister, the fiery Lila, has gone in search of her husband, leaving her sons in his care.

The law forbids Bannan from leaving Marrowdell and traveling to Mellynne to help his sister. In this world. As a turn-born, Jenn Nalynn has the power to cross into the magical realm of the Verge, and take Bannan with her. Once there, they could find a way into Mellynne.

If they survive. The Verge is wild and deadly, alive with strange magic. Dragons roar and kruar wait in ambush, and the powerful turn-born who care for their world do not care for Jenn Nalynn.

She's willing to try. Wisp and Scourge—and the house toads—offer their help.

But what none of them know is that magic is rife in Channen, magic that flows from the Verge itself. And not even a turn-born will be safe there.

Jenn Nalynn must navigate the magical realm of the Verge to help her butter-eyed truthseer of a love interest, Bannan Larmensu, rescue his sister from a prison cell in Channen.

Jenn can’t go just anywhere, but she can take Bannan through the Verge to Channen much faster than he can get there alone avoiding the dangerous Verge. The adventure is steeped in intrigue as Jenn and Bannon are accompanied by: Jen’s house toad; Wisp, a dragon and her bff; and Scourge, Bannon’s magical war-horse-ish creature.

In this story Jenn makes many discoveries, including some important truths about who she now is.

Easy listening 🎧 to Jen Jayden’s superb narration and Julie Czerneda’s excellent world building. I really enjoyed discovering that there’s so much more to the Toads and the other magical beings.

I can’t believe I finished this huge book so fast. Good job there’s another one in the series!

Getting stuck straight in.

Feet up for a perfect getaway!
