Monstrum (The Fourth Talisman Book 3)

Monstrum (The Fourth Talisman Book 3)

In the third volume of the Fourth Talisman series, the hunt is on for the three daevas whose powers saved the world once beforeâ€¦.

On the White Sea, realm of smashers and sea monsters, a ship is carrying Nazafareen and Darius to the Isles of the Marakai, where the wise woman Sakhet-ra-katme has guarded the secret of the talismans for centuries. But another is searching too, a daeva born in the brutal prison of the Kiln, who plans to use the talismans to free the Vatras and their mad king. When their paths collide at the emperorâ€™s lavish palace in Tjanjin, Nazafareen and Darius face their deadliest and most cunning foe yet.

In the mountain fastness of Val Moraine, the Pythiaâ€™s minions are on the scent of another talisman, this one from the Danai clan. Trapped behind a thick wall of ice, everyoneâ€™s going slightly madâ€”the perfect cauldron of suspicion and betrayal for Thena, who sees a chance to redeem her failure and bring the talisman back to Delphi. Then sheâ€™ll be free to indulge her twisted obsession with Dariusâ€”and make him pay.

And in Samarqand, Javid is drawn into the treacherous currents of a royal succession. When the old king dies and his son takes the throne, the depths of the princeâ€™s depravity become clear. A journey north reveals the source of the spell dust heâ€™s addicted toâ€”and leaves Javid with an impossible choice.
