Tempered Glass - Paperback

by Beth Overmyer (Author)

Readers of Carissa Broadbent will love this thrilling series weaving an intriguing world of fantasy and folklore.

Tempered Glass is the second book in the Blade & Bone trilogy. Verve survived her transformation into the Fire Queen, but can she survive the power that was given to her? Magic out of control, she seeks to tame and hide it. But when tragedy strikes, she's forced to return to a land she never wanted to see again and confront - or evade - a darkness she hoped had died. With her secret husband at odds with her way of breaking the curse put on her, Verve finds that love can make an unreliable ally, and that anger is a potent weapon.

The Blade & Bone trilogy follows Verve as she navigates Letorheas, the land of Faerie, where an ancient prophecy shapes her destiny.
