Which she has no intention of giving them. On the run with the Godspeakers’ minions in pursuit, Tavin and Khaya fight to expose the Godspeakers’ plan. Meanwhile, enemy governments are closing in, trying to take advantage of the chaos caused by Khaya’s escape. If control of the Words falls into the wrong hands, the world will never be the same.
