About the Book
Will and his friends are sent on a mission that leads to the discovery of a Wargal army massing to invade Araluen, and must choose between completing their mission and burning the bridge that is the army's only crossing—at enormous personal cost. A major step up in stakes from the first book, with a genuinely shocking ending.
