Book 2 in the Minka Lesk series. Cadia, ten thousand years a stalwart bastion against Chaos, is broken. Its collapse at the hands of Abaddon and the Thirteenth Black Crusade has fractured the Imperium of Man, and in its wake spreads the seeds of heresy, lies and insurrection. It falls to Cadia’s survivors to fight on, bloodied but unyielding, in the name of the Emperor. On the world of Malouri, traitorous forces have retreated to the impregnable island fortress of Crannog Mons. After years of stalemate warfare, the task of breaking the siege is given to Minka Lesk and the Cadian 101st, who find themselves fighting a meat-grinder mission that threatens to devour them. In the midst of slaughter, sacrifice and brutal attrition, a question must be answered: What does it mean to be Cadian in a galaxy without Cadia?

Sent to the capital world of Potence, Sergeant Minka Lesk and the Cadian 101st discover that though Cadia may have fallen, their duty continues. For ten thousand years, Cadia stood as a bastion against the daemonic tide spewing forth from the Eye of Terror. But now the Fortress World lies in ruins, its armies decimated in the wake of Abaddon the Despoiler and his Thirteenth Black Crusade. Those who survived, though haunted by the loss of their beloved homeworld, remain bloodied and unbarred, fighting ruthlessly in the Emperor’s name. Amongst them is the indomitable Sergeant Minka Lesk. Sent to the capital world of Potence, Lesk and the Cadian 101st company soon discover that a rot runs through the very heart of the seemingly peaceful world. Lesk knows she must excise this taint of Chaos, for it is not only her life and those of her company at stake, but also the honour of Cadia itself.

“The juxtaposition of magic with science is fascinating” in the sequel to Trickster’s Girl by the author of the Farsala Trilogy (School Library Journal). In near-future North America, Kelsa—last seen in Trickster’s Girl—has passed on the medicine pouch that contains the spiritual magic to save the earth from environmental destruction. Her pick to continue the quest is Jase, a native boy. But in fact, a family feud has cut Jase off from his traditional roots, and he is even more doubtful and resistant than Kelsa was. But the shapeshifting spirit Raven, now a beautiful girl, is quite persuasive and manages to convince Jase this is something not only that he can do, but that he must if he wants to heal his family and the earth. “Nonstop action, family strife, Pacific Northwest Native mythology and a likable hero combine in an unbeatable combination for fans of the fantastic.”—Kirkus Reviews “Readers of the first volume in the Raven Duet will enjoy this second and concluding one.”—Booklist “Will keep readers riveted.”—School Library Journal
