Some enemies seek power. This one seeks Fionn Hurley—but heroes don't fall, they rise roaring.
Fionn Hurley thought life between London and the magical realm of Arborea couldn’t surprise him anymore. He was wrong. When his bonded shadow-beast whisks him back to Arborea and straight into a burning village, he fears that a banished enemy has returned.
As Fionn and his friends at Arborea’s school of magic wrestle with unpredictable powers, intense magical training, and a baby dragon who depends on him, unsettling clues surface: an aunt who suddenly can’t stand him and visions that suggest his ties to Arborea run deeper than he ever believed.
With enemies closing in, Fionn realises there’s only one way to track the real threat before it finds him first: earn a coveted place on a magical investigations team.
The thrilling second book in the Lionborn series—a fast-paced middle-grade fantasy adventure packed with magic, courage and friendship, and the next step in Fionn’s journey from uncertainty to confidence. Perfect for fans of Percy Jackson, Skandar, and the Amari series.
