X is determined to break the lords' hold on him once and for all, but being stripped of his power pushes him toward a darkness he's never experienced and a past he's never known.
The secrets that surface could be the key to reuniting X and Zoe... or they could mean the destruction of everything they have been fighting for.

My Review: This continuing story of The Edge of Everything was everything I was looking for. This paranormal story was one adventure that I am so glad I got the chance to read. From the setting of the lowlands to the characters this one filled my days with an epic story. Zoe and X are such great characters and the best couple I have read in a while. This is one series that I would love to see on the big screen!! If you haven't checked this out you should!
