A Magic of Nightfall A Novel of the Nessantico Cycle

The second novel in the "Nessantico Cycle" continues the epic tale of an empire at its height, yet poised on the brink of what could be a devastating descent into ruin. It is a story of murder and magic, of deception and betrayal, of Machiavellian politics, star-crossed lovers, and a realm facing war on every front.
