This second book in the A Hundred Names for Magic trilogy is not your average fairy tale. Join Alex, Tala, and their friends on their next adventure in this unputdownable series about modern-day magic, found family, and standing up for what's right.

The second book in the A Hundred Names for Magic trilogy is an unforgettable alternative history fairy tale series from the author of The Bone Witch, about found family, modern-day magic, and finding the place you belong.

Tala, Alex, and the rest of their friends are safe for now, but they know the Snow Queen is still out there. They have to be prepared for when she eventually attacks—and all decide to do so in their own way.

When Ryker comes out of the woodwork, showing himself by attacking American detention facilities and freeing refugees, things get complicated. The Nameless Sword, a legendary weapon that, according to Avalon legend, will make its wielder the most powerful warrior of their time, turns up with Tala's name on it. Tala's life gets messier... But when the Snow Queen arrives with an unlikely ally, the group will have to work together.
