Then everything changes when Zélie meets King Baldyr, her true captor and the man who has ravaged entire civilizations to find her. The ruler of the Skulls, Baldyr's quest to harness Zélie's strength sends Zélie, Amari, and Tzain searching for allies in foreign lands. But as Baldyr closes in, catastrophe charges Orïsha's shores. It will take everything Zélie has to face her final enemy and save her people before the Skulls annihilate them for good.

In die klein myndorpie Goudfontein weet almal iets van mekaar … maar
niemand ken die volle waarheid nie.
´n Aardbewing op ´n Vrystaatse myndorp laat 'n skoolgebou ineenstort en
keer drie tieners onder die puin vas. Terwyl hulle suurstof en hulle
hoop al minder word, beleef die leser die angswekkende situasie saam
met hulle. Die vasgekeerde kinders ervaar engtevrees en angs vir die
naderende dood, en opflikkerings van verbete hoop en selfs humor,
totdat ´n reddingspan hulle dae later eers uitgrawe. Maar een van hulle
oorleef dit nie . . .
Moedverloor word deur ’n verskriklike droogte geteister. Die dorp is
verlate – behalwe vir Koot Marais, die apteker, en sy gesin. Maar dan
beland Katisja op hulle voorstoep – gewapen met slegs haar rooi
sambreel en onmoontlike oplossings vir allerhande onmoontlike probleme.
En wat volg is suiwer maltrap-avontuur: ontploffende drankies, singende
Agtertrekkers, tweeling-fortuinvertellers, geheimsinnige wakiste,
verlore kinders, en ’n skouspelagtige lugontsnapping in ʼn
sigeuner-karavaan!

weer sy ouers sal sien nie, en die Gr 7-jaar waarna hy en Alvin so
uitgesien het, is skielik vervang met praatjies oor lammers en weiding.
Maar gaandeweg begin Ben die groter prentjie sien. 'n Diepsinnige, dog
ligte grootwordstorie.
