Description

No hiding place lasts forever...not even a magical one.

Deep in the Hidden City, a strange scar tears open, forcing the Guild to heed Liam Kraus's warning: the Legion is intent on taking down their realm. First, the Lapidary Echo disappears into thin air. And now, "the rift" may provide the perfect gateway through which their enemy can enter.

Despite months of covert magical studies, Anna Beck is still struggling to master her powers — and the Guild has yet to change its mind about outlawing TradeMagic. Determined to protect her undercover magic school and the friends who rely on her, Anna goes in search of secrets. But eavesdropping on Guild meetings means hearing information that throws her heart and conscience into turmoil.

Meanwhile, as Liam struggles to balance loyalty with his growing desire for knowledge and power, the Legion's terrifying strategy starts to surface. The longer Liam toes the line, the more dearly it will cost him—and the Guild.

The Toymaker and the Mysterious Rift is the much-anticipated sequel in Birgit Schreiber's sweeping TradeMagic™ Series. If you crave unique magic systems, good-versus-evil storylines, and slow-burn sagas, this immersive YA fantasy trilogy is for you.
