As the Mabon Games ignite with fierce competition, Query and her team, Priya’s Pummelers, navigate challenges of wit, agility, and sheer survival. From heated duels to brain-teasing riddles, each event pushes them closer to the edge. But Sasha throws Query off her game, and their rogue, Zir, proves to be an unstoppable stealth master, the competition only heats up. With daring rescues, high-stakes strategy, and an unexpected surprise trial, the games are about to turn deadly. Will they rise to the challenge—or be crushed beneath the weight of their own expectations?
While this is a fantasy story, we don't have so many classical adventurous fantasy chapters of big magic and battles. This one and a few to follow are exactly that before this first book comes to a close.
