Guardian - Dawson E.B. Dawson - Bog

WHAT WOULD YOU RISK TO SAVE YOUR WORLD?

Winter has crippled the nation of Riyen and Hawthorne has made moves to take over the city for his own mysterious purposes. When Rodge and Janelle arrive in Angapo they find that war has broken out. With Anissa missing and no way to contact her, they will have to formulate their own plan to get back to Riyen and stop Hawthorne.
Meanwhile, Anissa and Carson find themselves the leaders of a new rebellion against an enemy much greater than Hawthorne. Battling their own brokenness and conflicting desires, their search for answers seems to uncover more obstacles. As events unravel, each of them will have to decide how much they are willing to sacrifice to save the Empire.

"Thematically, this book ratchets up tensions that have been growing throughout the series and weaves a beautiful, heartbreaking, hopeful tale of healing worlds that have generations of animosity toward each other. It gives me hope for our world and challenges me to likewise be an agent of reconciliation."
-Beth Wangler, author of Child of the Kaites
