About this book

This spellbinding tale of dark magic takes readers back to Lyra, the world of Shadow Magic and Daughter of Witches. THERE STANDS A TWISTED TOWER... hidden in the Windhome Mountains. Something is imprisoned there -- the Sisterhood of Stars does not know precisely what, but something is bound tight with a wizard's spell so that it can never escape again. Kayl is one of the few to have looked upon the Twisted Tower. She has no desire to see it again - she left the Sisterhood long ago, settling down to a quiet life. Her sword lies unused in a secret place beneath the stones of her hearth. But something evil is leaking from the Tower. And now a sorceress and a wizard have appeared on Kayl's doorstep, demanding she take up the sword again.
