Archmage in the Ruins

Book excerpt: Juniper leads the druids into her former home, the now abandoned Rusdasin to battle against Nexon and his armies of mages. As Juniper struggles with who she is supposed to be and is haunted by ghosts of a home she never knew, secrets lie deep in the battle-worn and forgotten Castle Balendine. Ison has infiltrated Nexon's forces, but he must tread carefully. If he succeeds, he just might turn the ride of battle. If not, the beasts he once helped create will surely rip him into pieces. Prince Adrian has watched his home burn, his friends separate, his enemies rise. Not a warrior like his father or his friends, Adrian must navigate and bolster the force of criminals, mages, and knights in order to retake his castle and be the prince his people need. Reid has fought against magic his entire life, but a sudden influx of power leaves him confused and uncertain. Grappling with this new power, Reid must rely on an unlikely ally in order to overcome the odds. Friends reunite and enemies collide in one final battle that will determine the future of the realm.
