Snakeroot

In the fourth book of the New York Times bestselling Nightshade series, the aftermath of an epic war leaves new battles—and fates—to be discovered.

“Plenty of suspense sets the stage for continuing this hit series."—Kirkus Reviews

In this return to the epic Nightshade series, Bosque Mar haunts the dreams of both Adne and Logan, trying to escape for the Nether, where Calla, Shay and the other Guardians trapped him in the final battle in the War of All Against All. As Adne works to keep these visions—and her growing suspicions about the Keepers—a secret, Logan uses them to his advantage, attempting to salvage his own legacy of power. Will Bosque Mar turn Adne to the dark side? Will Logan reclaim his birthright? And will darkness take over the world?

Filled with magic, romance, and breakneck action, Snakeroot is the perfect continuation of the epic romantasy series that will leave readers searching for more.
