Wings of Shadow

More about the book

In the gripping finale of the Crown of Feathers trilogy, Veronyka confronts her most formidable foe: her sister. Once an orphaned stable boy and a nameless Phoenix Rider apprentice, Veronyka is now the daughter of Pheronia Ashfire, the last queen of the Golden Empire, and the niece of Avalkyra Ashfire, the rebel queen who shattered the empire. With her true identity revealed, Veronyka finds herself isolated at the Eyrie, especially with Tristan held captive by the manipulative Lord Rolan and Sev acting as a spy. Her only allies are her beloved phoenix, Xephyra, and Kade, who has his own motives for rescuing Tristan. As tensions rise, Veronyka must confront the possibility of a sisterly battle between light and darkness. Determined to save Tristan, she faces the challenge of revealing her identity and potentially claiming a throne she never wanted. The stakes escalate when she learns Avalkyra has bonded with a strix, a dark creature that drains life force. With Avalkyra bent on revenge against a world that spurned her, Veronyka realizes she must confront her sister to bring peace to both the empire and Pyra. The legacy of the Ashfire queens may lead to their ultimate destruction.
