About this series
The conclusion of the Season Avatars series!
Kay might be the youngest, smallest, and least confident Season Avatar, but her weather magic makes her the most powerful of her group. Now that she also can contact the souls of dead Avatars, her quartet has a chance to end Chaos Season permanently. All Kay and her sister Avatars need are three more bones.
To obtain them, Kay's quartet must travel across Challen, evading the King's Watch and Selathens who want to protect their demigoddess, Salth, creator of Chaos Season. Kay's deepest beliefs about her God and her longtime rival, Dorian, will be challenged during the trip. If she loses her faith and newfound courage, she will fail, and the rest of the Season Avatars with her.

Jenna Dorshay t'Reve isn't your typical farmer's daughter. Blessed with plant magic, she's been impatiently waiting to take her place as Summer Avatar of Challen. All she and her sister Season Avatars have to do is tame a Chaos Season, a magical weather storm sent to Challen by a wrathful demigoddess. They've done this many times in other lives, but now dangerous plants resistant to Jenna's magic make Chaos Season worse. Even the assistance of the War Avatar, father of Jenna's child, may not be enough to stop the plants. Before Jenna can conquer the deathbushes and tame Chaos Season, she must fully link with the other Avatars in her quartet, but to do so means revealing a secret that can tear them apart.

Ysabel became the Goddess of Fall's Avatar to care for animals, but her kind heart may prove fatal to her loved ones. When a pair of strange animals, part bird and part lizard, invade the country of Challen during a magical weather storm, Ysabel must learn if they're ordinary creatures or if they're connected to Salth, the Season Avatars' sworn enemy. However, the clawfeet, as she calls them, are resistant to her magic. After tragedy strikes the Avatars, Ysabel comes up with a desperate plan to allow all twelve of them to face Salth together as required by the Four Gods and Goddesses of Challen. Jealousy, however, tears an ally from the Avatars during their most vulnerable time as even more beasts rise against them. If Ysabel cannot control the strange animals and use justice as well as mercy, she will not only lose her position as Avatar but the people she loves.
