Broken, Betrayed — Rebecca Taylor

While the sorcerers of the Schen-Arnalien begin their plans to infiltrate Zhilvarien, the mages of that land have their own battles. Sapphire Delfin must face the first true test of her powers. When enemies approach, will she be able to harness the powerful magic at her fingertips, or is she still just an ordinary girl from the Gladewoods? Tragedy threatens to strike the sorcerers of the north. Can disaster be averted, or does trouble simply await them at every turn? And in the south, Coppelia Northmore must decide, once and for all, what direction her future must take - and with whom. Will any of them find peace, or are they destined to be at war for ever?
