Something that will stop at nothing to see their patience and perseverance rewarded. Even if it means the end of all civilization.The Laniers and their band of dysfunctional malcontents may have averted one apocalypse in defying the nether on Vaelsyntheria, but can they prevent a second on a world they know nothing about against an enemy that may know them better than they know themselves?Find out in
Nothing But Ghosts Now, the fifth and penultimate volume in the pulse-pounding dark fantasy series The Giftborn Chronicles, from Drew Bailey.
