Look Inside: A Transfer of Realms
Synopsis: A Transfer of Realms
BOOK II OF THE REALM RIDERS SERIES
D’Erenelle is dying. Deadly swarms of soul-sucking Narxon infiltrate the realm.
Rhoswen of Stanburh, D’Erenelle’s yet-untethered Heir-Rider-in-hiding, must soon reveal herself and lead the Realm Rider forces to the sanctuary of another realm. Yet, in a desperate act to retain power, her uncle, King Badrick, engenders a plan that defies centuries of Realm Cycle precedent and threatens to expose Rhoswen before her dragon is even born. As Descents increase and more Rider forces fall to the Narxon, Badrick begins fracturing alliances to home in on the Heir Rider’s identity—and he seems to be fixating on those closest to Rhoswen.
Political division in the Exchange reveals secrets that were supposed to remain buried.
As a Transfer, Emmelyn Darrow can’t technically participate in the G’Ambit. But with the help of a Datist accomplice, she exploits the underground gambling ring to expose the wayward thinking her boss and other anti-realmers propagate. As her bets publicly unravel the Exchange’s mysteries, more and more members find themselves inexorably linked by the organization’s weavings. Those who want such knowledge to remain obscured will do anything to thwart Emmelyn’s plans... and punish her for her meddling.
With enemies around every corner, both heroines seek to uncover the truths that will propel their plans into the future—whether they can remain at the helm or not.
In A Transfer of Realms, book two of the Realm Riders Series, Heather Ashle’s tangled web of worlds and the memorable characters who inhabit them will send you racing to solve the mysteries surrounding imperfect heroes and tormented villains. But the real question is: which is which?
