Reluctant Mage, The Fisherman's Children

In this epic fantasy adventure sequel to The Prodigal Mage, a sister sets out to rescue her brother from an evil sorcerer.

It’s been many months since Rafel ventured over Barl’s Mountains into the unknown, in a desperate bid to seek help for their ravaged land. With his father’s Weather Magic exhausted, there seemed no other hope. Now this too has died.

Only Deenie believes Rafel still lives, sensing her brother in tortured dreams. She also knows she must try to find him, as only Rafel’s talents could heal their land. The prospect terrifies Deenie, yet she sees no other choice.

Deenie soon learns of a dangerous new power. She comes to suspect that not only is her brother involved, but also that the evil their father destroyed is somehow reborn. And if she can’t save Rafel, then through him, Morg’s vast power could once again command their world.
