From Death

Two years have passed since Tobin North nearly died in Miner's Quarry, and much has changed in the world. Demon attacks are becoming more common in his village, and his father's trade run is producing fewer of the crystals needed to protect the living from the dead. So when Tobin and his father are told they won't be getting any new crystals this year, everyone begins bracing for the worst.

The worst arrives in the form of an abusive army that offers to defend the villagers at the cost of their homes, their food and their few remaining crystals. And when Tobin's ex-girlfriend Vera and others begin plotting a rebellion, Tobin learns that freedom comes at a high price.

So once again Tobin and Vera are in danger. They're on the run, the army is at their heels, and their village is defenseless against the gathering demons. Tobin's only chance to save everyone is to travel south and uncover the secrets of the ancient city of Sedona. But some secrets are better left alone.
