Book Synopsis
Prepare for another battle of good vs. evil in the second installment of The Acacia Chronicles!
Returning to Alia's childhood home after an assassination attempt, Alia, along with her family and friends, discovers the community is deserted, it's residents either missing or dead. Among the abandoned belongings, they find an envelope addressed to Alia from the rogue mage Marek. Seemingly enchanted, the envelope must remain sealed until they can confer with the head of the Order of the Mages. But, before they reach their destination, they are summoned by the Special Envoy to the Peoples of The Four Lands who instructs them to meet a young woman at the Temple of Anaia after seeking the mages' counsel. When they arrive at The Order, they are shocked to find it destroyed and most of the mages massacred.
The group travels on to The Temple, where they make contact with the multitalented Aistra and escort her to the elven capital. There they learn the true nature of the special envoy along with Marek's malevolent plan.
At the request of the elven and dwarven kings, the band of friends, along with the dwarven prince Skala, journey to The Wilds to warn the Northern tribes of Marek's scheme, but things don't go to plan. Upon the advice of a young, tribal diviner, the group agrees to separate with one heading west to warn the Vherals and the other, Alia's group, heading east into the heart of Marek's camp. Facing death, the group must work together to stop the rogue mage. But first, they'll need to discover the source of his power.
Join Alia and her friends on this fast-paced epic adventure full of plot twists, thrilling fight scenes, romance, and an evil mage gone rogue. Appealing to all fans from teens to adults, The Mage blends fantasy, romance, and humor with an empowering message of determination, resilience, and hope.
