Hunting Darkness...

Chaeris is the hope of her family and her community, a potential Seer, child and yet companion of Amberlight's reborn mystery, the qherrique.

Therkon is crown prince and defender of a damaged empire, seeking answers to storms that wreck trade and fling ashore refugees from the distant Archipelago. And with them, word of a menace that still has no name.

Over land, over sea, through unexpected perils and amid unlooked-for friendship, they find themselves driven to a deadly meeting in the ruined Isles, under a darkness that threatens to destroy them -- and who can See a dawn beyond?
