About this ebook
BOOK TWO OF THE GREAT WAY: Having lost the prince to the madness of The Blessing, Tejohn and Cazia are the only people who know of his plan to retrieve a secret spell that might, just might, turn the tide of battle against the grunts.
But Tejohn’s body is broken, and Cazia has been stripped of her magic. Worse, both are being held captive: Tejohn faces charges of treason in the lands where he was born. On the other side of the continent, Cazia is a prisoner of the Tilkilit queen, a creature with a desperate, deadly plan.
While they struggle for their freedom, The Blessing continues to spread across Kal-Maddum, their numbers growing more numerous as the human population shrinks. What had started as a race to restore an empire has quickly become a mission to save humanity from extinction.

Reviews for The Way Into Magic
17 ratings1 review
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The sequel to The Way Into Chaos should only be read after the first book in order to appreciate how the main characters are forced to grow under the pressure of the responsibilities they’ve taken on. Civilization is falling apart, all of humanity is in danger of extermination, and they have to learn new ways of dealing with the world if there is to be any hope of survival. This is just as much of a page-turner as the first book, but the core of this one is the breaking down of old assumptions and learning to make friends and allies across previously absolute barriers of class, culture, and species.
