The bestselling Bravelands adventures continue! In this thrilling three-book arc, a water buffalo, hyena, and cheetah take center stage. The time for rain is approaching fast, but before the Great Spirit will let it fall, the animals of Bravelands must grapple with a dangerous new threat. Cast out of his coalition, Stride the cheetah embarks on a perilous mission for the Great Parent, accompanied by a honey badger burdened with a dark and mysterious past. Whisper the water buffalo has been searching desperately for her brother Echo, presumed dead after a terrible fall. Meanwhile, without his guidance, the herd wanders in circles as another headstrong male tries to seize control of the migration. And the hyena now known as Breathstealer finds herself pulled in two directions—courted by the Great Spirit at one moment and other times tempted by the Great Devourer, who sends her compelling visions of power and plenty. The balance of power in Bravelands rests on a knife’s edge, and the Great Devourer waits hungrily in the shadows. Will these unlikely heroes be able to restore their home?
