Description

In this highly anticipated sequel, twelve-year-old Maya and the godlings must return to the sinister world of The Dark to retrieve her father's soul, the key element that prevents the veil between the worlds from crumbling. After narrowly escaping the Lord of Shadows in their previous adventure, tensions are high. Maya, now a guardian in training, grapples with her erratic orisha powers, which create chaotic wormholes. Discovering that their last mission was flawed, Maya and her friends must journey back to The Dark to correct their mistake and prevent an all-out war, even if it means allying with their enemies, the darkbringers.
