The epic conclusion to The Watchers of Astaria series!

Maybe coming back to life wasn’t the best idea.

Brulle Cobb was a watcher until he was pushed too far and faked his death to escape. After Victoria Wyndham showed up on his doorstep, he’s drawn back into Astarian politics. The Watchers are in a race against the clock to stop a group of cultists from bringing their goddess back to the world and enslaving the free people of Astaria, and they need all hands on deck.

Now, Brulle, Quinn, and Victoria must outsmart High Priestess Nimish who has so far evaded all attempts at finding her, much less preventing her ritual. With all the countries around Astaria whipped into murderous frenzies by the mysterious priestess, their armies converging on Iron Harbor and threatening to destroy the heart of Astaria itself, the three Watchers and a few unlikely comrades may be the world’s only hope. For Nimish’s ritual to invite Ghuasis, the goddess of the underworld, to dine upon the souls of unbelievers is not only feasible but may already have begun.

Can the three pull together to stop not one, but two armies from destroying the people they have sworn to protect before it is to late?

Praise for Patrick Dugan’s Books
Storm Forged is a superhero coming of age story with a truly innovative structure for both powers and politics.

-Hugo & Nebula Award-winning Author Seanan McGuire

Of Cogs & Conjuring is a fun steampunk story with a enjoyable main character and a prissy butler made out of cogs and wheels. Can't wait for the next one.
