by Ashley Capes
Genre: Epic Fantasy Adventure
When
a royal conspiracy topples the noble House Falco, Sofia must take up
the burden of her father's mantle and assume guardianship of his
Greatmask. Yet the sentient bone mask, powerful enough to Compel
those around her, will not speak, and Sofia, the first female
Protector in a hundred years, is left defenceless.
Hunted
by the king, she is driven from the palace and must fight for
survival, alone in the cold streets of Anaskar. There, she crosses
paths with Notch, a bitter mercenary with problems of his own.
Accused of murder, Notch is trying to clear his name while hunted by
the city's robed assassins, the very people who are now searching for
Sofia.
To
take back their city and cast down the tyrant on the throne, Sofia
and Notch must face the blades of Anaskar's assassins, the rage of a
mighty sea beast, and the mysterious Lupo, a man with a Greatmask of
his own, who has masterminded vicious terrorist attacks on the city
that spurned him.
Their
struggle threatens to tear the city – and the kingdom - into
shreds.

his loved ones. In his desperation he makes a startling discovery
about his Pathfinder heritage.
Meanwhile,

At
last, Notch escapes the city of vipers and starts his quest to find
Qu-Sitka, the only mage able to restore Sofia. Yet Casselli and the
Prince have other plans for Notch and the mysterious bracers he

before he knows it, the power of the bracers begins to change
him...

And even for a dilar, Flir knows she is overmatched.
Back
in Anaskar, Seto is locked in his own struggle with not only a royal
imposter sent to replace him but also his own conscience, while Ain
finds himself stranded on an island with little clue as to where the

save the Cloud.

Conclusion
to the Bone Mask Cycle!
Notch
finally holds the answers he sought, along with an unsuspecting
Sacrifice... but drawing all the pieces together will prove a greater
challenge – especially when it becomes clear that the Fura Leones
does not approve of such desperate measures.
In
Renovar, Flir must find a way to salvage the bones of the frozen Sea
God but Chelona has other plans for the mighty corpse, and trapped
within her now is Seto, whose frustration can only build as he
watches over but cannot warn his friends.
Equally
troubling is the floating city of Ilesinya, which now hovers
dangerously near Anaskar, seemingly poised to strike. Lord Danillo is
drawing together his allies in a final gambit to defeat Chelona and
her unstable creation, Zasemu, but none know her true plan... and
when it becomes clear, all lands will face a threat like no other.
