Malevolenci

Demons are winning. Allies are turning. This war isn't what they thought.

The malevolenci that nearly destroyed the Sanctuary in Alterni are back, stronger and more cunning than before. Alliances once united begin to fracture, and the fragile peace that Esme found is slipping through her fingers.

Magic is no longer new to her – it's limitless. Unfortunately, power alone can't calm restless paranormals. Jinn dabble in civilian politics. Fairies demand an impossible return to their home world. Rebel vampires cry slavery. Ancient tensions flare, and whispers of civil war sweep through the Order.

But nothing could prepare them for the truth waiting beneath doctrine and history – how close they truly are to losing the war, and what that loss will mean for every alt-world.

Running out of time, Esme and Owen draw old friends and unexpected allies into a search for answers hidden in ancient texts, forgotten caves, and blood memories. Finding the malevolenci's weakness might save them all…but uncovering the truth could tear apart everything the Order believes.

Malevolenci is Book 2 of The Alt-World Chronicles, a high-stakes urban fantasy series full of magic, war, loyalty, and reality-shaking secrets about to be unburied.
