    About this series

    Hear the conclusion to the series Brandon Sanderson calls "imaginative, fast-paced urban fantasy."

    Now in possession of the artifact that has torn his world apart, Zan Mardova is still reeling from the discovery of a strange new magic, a connection with Ellie that challenges everything he's ever known about typics and the Skilled. Before he can find his footing, Zan faces a new menace-a creature wearing the body of his old friend that is tearing across Italy toward Venice, leaving a trail of reanimated corpses in its wake.

    Where there is power, there will be those seeking to use it. Zan means to use his power to create a better world for typics and Skilled alike-

    But if he can't stop what's coming, it may already be too late.

      Enter a Venice filled with bright magic, dark secrets, and a romance for the ages. On the streets of Venice, magic burns and wars wage, while powerful illusions and mind-bending magic keep the world of The Skilled hidden from ordinary people-or typics. The powerful Mardova Family rules Venice with an iron fist, keeping their powers secret and their eyes on their enemies. Zan Mardova would rather use his magical Skills to do tricks on his motorcycle or fly over buildings than involve himself in Family politics, but when he discovers a rival Family has brainwashed a beautiful typic girl named Ellie, he begins to unravel a web of dangerous secrets with Ellie at the center. Zan's loyalty has always been to the Mardovas and the fate of Venice, but as Zan's feelings for Ellie grow, he can no longer ignore his suspicions about members of his own Family. Zan fears there's a traitor among the Mardovas-and it might be him.
