Ruinbound (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781069424808)

The origins of the world are stirring...

With the truth of Chris Olestine's identity unveiled, Ryoku Dragontalen unravels deeper horrors - secrets not only about the fate of the world, but his very existence. Haunted by fragments of a past he barely remembers, Ryoku must race to right his wrongs and search through three worlds tied to Ricker's elusive trail. With two halves of himself pulling in opposite directions, which one will he answer?

Meanwhile, the realm of Syaoto faces devastation. Will struggles to hold his crumbling world together as chaos unfolds, and Katiel battles a reborn force - a Shadowheart tied to the destruction of an old world.

With betrayal in the air and hearts divided, Ryoku and his allies must stop Gaia's oldest enemies from bringing the world to its knees. But the path ahead leads deeper into shadow - and time is running out.
