Paragon of Shadow - Paperback

by Beth Alvarez (Author)

The Bladebearer has fallen.

And with him, so has the capital. Now, without the power of the legendary blade or the hand meant to wield it, Lark is forced to take charge of the crumbling kingdom and leave her captured friend behind. With Amroch's armies scattered and her magic yet to awaken, her only hope is to earn the right to wield the Spectrum Blade and become the new Bladebearer herself.

Trapped at the enemy's mercy, Zaide fights to survive, knowing there is no chance of rescue while Gadranus holds Amrochan. His place inside enemy lines grants him the ability to help his people from within, an arrangement that offers more risks than relief... until the offer is made.

If Zaide gives up the fight and joins the enemy, the power he's entrusted with could be the secret to saving everyone he holds dear. But any misstep could prove fatal, and as the shadowy forces that tempt his soul grow, the line he walks grows thinner by the moment.

The adventure continues in Paragon of Shadow, book five of Spectrum Legacy.
