The Songs of the Drowned - The Dark Feather (The Songs of the Drowned, Book 3)
The epic, heartbreaking conclusion to the Songs of the Drowned trilogy
Ixachipan burns. Rebellion rages in every land as the Empire of Songs battles to maintain control.
As Xessa and Lilla lead their warriors in increasingly desperate battles, their unity broken by betrayal and deception, Whisper Ilandeh finds freedom and obligation in making her own choices. Meanwhile, Shadow Tayan faces the awful consequences of his actions – and their seductive possibilities.
For war is fickle, and so are people. Sometimes, the only peace possible is that bought with blood and lies. And when vengeance sings, the choices made will determine whether the flames of war are fanned – or drowned.
