It’s been a thousand years since the Avas Vatras tried to burn the world to ashes. A thousand years since they were imprisoned in the brutal wasteland called the Kiln. But revenge is a dish best served cold - even, apparently, by the children of fire. In Delphi, Nazafareen joins forces with the followers of Dionysius to rescue her friends from the Oracle’s dungeons and seek out the three talismans whose extraordinary powers stopped the Vatras before. With her own breaking magic growing stronger by the day, she must walk a razor’s edge to control her volatile temper.

It wasn’t until I lost everything—my home, my marriage, even my career—that I started to wonder if our “family curse” might be more than an unfortunate turn of phrase. Now turning forty-five, the age at which every woman in my family dies, I need answers not only for myself but for my two daughters. And I’ll see every specialist in the country if that’s what it takes. But when a lifelong friend discovers a link between my strange family history and an abandoned estate, I can't pass up the opportunity to learn what happened before the death certificates started piling up.

Sie erkämpfte sich den Thron gegen ihre Geschwister und schützte ihr Reich über Jahrzehnte gegen die übermächtigen Römer. Sie paktierte mit Julius Cäsar und Marcus Antonius und galt deshalb schon zu ihrer Zeit als machtgierige Verführerin.

Stealing magical artifacts was supposed to be my golden ticket, not a death sentence. Securing a dangerous book of spells should’ve earned me some time off and a fat bonus. I’d hoped to spend my days breaking in the new climbing wall at G.O.A.T. headquarters, hanging out with a hot alpha werewolf, and planning my next karaoke set. Instead, the Enclave hands me a ten-day ultimatum and a job hunting a cursed artifact that got their last two thieves killed. When the search turns up clues about my parents, I’ll do whatever it takes to discover who I am—even if it takes blood magic to do it.

El trabajo de la doctora Kübler-Ross nos confirma que la muerte es un pasaje hacia otra forma de vida y nos hace comprender que la experiencia de la muerte es casi idéntica a la del nacimiento, puesto que se trata del inicio de otra existencia, el paso a un nuevo estado de conciencia en el que se continúa experimentando, viendo y oyendo, comprendiendo y riendo, y en el que se tiene la posibilidad de perseverar en el crecimiento espiritual.
