About this listen

Chronicling the rise of the Keepers, this stunning prequel to the New York Times bestselling Nightshade series tells the origin story of the magical war that started a revolution.

“A richly layered, supernatural romance both appealing and unique.”—School Library Journal

Sixteen-year-old Ember Morrow is promised to a group called Conatus after one of their healers saves her mother's life. Once she arrives, Ember finds joy in wielding swords, learning magic, and fighting the encroaching darkness loose in the world. She also finds herself falling in love with her mentor, the dashing, brooding, and powerful Barrow Hess. But when the knights realize that Eira, one of their leaders, is dabbling in dark magic, Ember and Barrow must choose whether to follow her into the nether realm or to pledge their lives to destroying her and her kind.

With action, adventure, magic, and tantalizing sensuality, Rift is as fast-paced and breathtaking as the original Nightshade trilogy,
