Publisher Description
Hana Lee’s gritty, queer Mad Max–inspired fantasy duology continues with more high-stakes political intrigue, monsters of all kinds, and a high-speed motorcycle adventure to find a refuge for humanity beyond the wasteland.
Jin-Lu should be happy. Princess Yi-Nereen of Kerina Rut and Prince Kadrin of Kerina Sol have reunited after twelve long years, having survived a near-apocalypse. They are safe and in love—thanks to Jin—and they want her to join them for their upcoming nuptials in Kerina Sol.
But their happy ending came at the cost of Jin’s.
Jin lost everything in the fallout of saving the world. Now she’s Talentless, scrabbling to eke out a living in the lowest echelons of society. All she wants is to be left alone with her shameful secret, but the storms that sweep the wastes have other plans.
When refugees from a fallen city flood into Kerina Sol, the delicate balance between Talented and Talentless shatters. With tensions rising and civil war looming, Yi-Nereen, Kadrin, and Jin must join forces again to save their own people and the refugees.
Now their salvation lies beyond the wastes, in the mythical home of the gods: the First City.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
The sweeping finale to Lee's Magebike Courier duology sees her protagonists facing conflicts both personal and world-changing. Following the events of 2024's Road to Ruin, courier Jin-Lu has lost the Talent, which allowed her to ride her magebike through the wasteland separating the far-flung cities that shelter mankind from destructive storms. Stung by this newfound vulnerability, she's avoiding the two people she loves most, Prince Kadrin of Kerina Sol and Princess Yi-Nareen of Kerina Rut, who are meanwhile moving forward with their wedding. After another city falls to the storms, its refugees come to Kerina Sol, bringing with them whispers of the legendary First City, the rumored home of the gods. Now the race is on to find this place and claim its wonders, even as the storms grow ever more destructive. With Kadrin, Yi-Nareen, and Jin caught in the middle of this epic struggle for survival and dominance, they must still find time to redefine their complicated relationship. The unforgiving environment is as vividly drawn as ever, and the stakes feel sky-high. A sizable supporting cast allows for layers of moral and emotional complexity as the story races toward an intense conclusion. Fans will not be disappointed.
