Publisher's summary

"San Madrigal is as real as Wakanda or the Shire or Earthsea. Only the best authors can make me feel nostalgic for a place that never existed but needs to exist, and Daniel Jose Older is one of the best."—Rick Riordan

Two gods-turned-teenagers wage simultaneous battles in the Caribbean and Brooklyn in this breathless sequel to BALLAD & DAGGER.

Healer. Destroyer. Creator. Mateo Matisse and Chela Hidalgo are not just two teenagers in love—they're powerful gods in human form. Powerful enough to have saved their Brooklyn diaspora community from the wrath of an ancient enemy and to have raised their once-sunken native island of San Madrigal from the sea. But soon they discover that their problems are far from over.

On the shores of San Madrigal, two creature armies are battling for survival. And on the streets of Brooklyn, a once tight-knit community is divided, with two sides at each other's throats. But worst of all, a heartbreaking prophecy rips these two young lovers apart, sending Mateo back to the city, where cops are now patrolling the streets, and keeping Chela tethered to the island, where chaos and death lurk around every corner.

Healer. Destroyer. Creator. As gods, their powers know no limits. But as teenagers—separated, desperate, grieving—what will become of them? And what will become of their people?

Join their battle and witness their love in this thrilling conclusion to the epic saga that began with BALLAD & DAGGER. Endorsed by Rick Riordan, author of Percy Jackson and the Olympians, soon to be a series on Disney+. Look for these other titles by Daniel José Older:

Uhhh it left me confused…

The story from the beginning drew me in and made really feel emotional as the two MC are going against time. But the audio version of this book was very disappointing because chapter. 31-40 was missing or out of place which soiled the audio experience for me. I would skip this audio book until this is fixed . Overall, the story so far has been really fun and heartfelt
