Summary

Move back through time into the alluring worlds of the Alchemists' Council

The anticipated second book in Cynthea Masson's series takes listeners to Flaw Dimension, centuries before the events of Book One. Rebel scribe Genevre, exploring secreted libraries with Dragonsblood pulsing through her young veins, accidentally discovers a 5th-Council manuscript with a long-forgotten alchemical formula whose implications could permanently transform both the Alchemists' Council and the Rebel Branch.

A revolution looms as High Azoth Dracaen strengthens the power of the Rebel Branch, Cedar and Saule take treacherous steps against fellow alchemists, and the unprecedented mutual conjunction of Ilex and Melia changes the fate of all dimensions. With insurgents gathering, Ilex and Melia's attempt to open a forbidden breach through time could bring salvation - or total destruction - to the elemental balance of the world.

The battle over free will for all of humanity continues in The Flaw in the Stone, the remarkable second installment of this epic fantasy trilogy.

Critic reviews

"A distinctive style; fascinating alchemical world building; and a strong, epic goal make this a delightful follow-up to The Alchemists' Council, and it sets up the complex interaction between everyone's contingency plans beautifully, with twists and turns that promise a satisfying conclusion." (Booklist)

"This series is well-constructed and original. Cynthea Masson does an excellent job of balancing the good and evil of her flawed characters." (CM Magazine)
