'Truly enchanting' Trudi Canavan on The Outcast Mage
'Both classic and utterly original, this is heartfelt fantasy from a wonderful new voice' Tasha Suri on The Outcast Mage
The Void Dragon continues the epic fantasy tale that began with The Outcast Mage, following a young woman whose strange powers may destroy the world, and packed with intrigue, adventure and dragonfire
Naila has escaped the chaos that engulfed her home city of Amoria, but at a terrible cost. Her allies have splintered and there's a power growing inside of her that she doesn't understand. It feels dangerous. It feels hungry.
Hunted by dragonriders, Naila must seek sanctuary at the great library of Awasef. Perhaps here she will find some answers - if they don't kill her first.
But the land of Dahran is on a knife edge. The Queen's advisor, the Wazira, is abducting mages and forcing them to join her cause. Worse still, Haelius Akana - Naila's friend and the greatest wizard of his age - is among them.
As political conspiracies slide towards civil war, Naila's power threatens to consume her and everyone she holds dear. Haelius may be the only person who can help her.
But only if he betrays his new master to stand at Naila's side.
Praise for the series
