The Phoenix Effect Part 4: The Yield (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798892991957)

To Ignite What Becomes

The war between the Resistance and the Unity has reached its breaking point. Armies are exhausted, alliances are fractured, and victory seems farther away than ever. But in the fertile valley of Willowdowns, hope may finally have taken root.

Once Roland's home and now the most valuable farmland left in the ruined world, Willowdowns could provide enough food to end the war-and enough power to determine who controls what comes next. For Lia and Arin, securing the valley means risking everything on a fragile alliance neither can fully trust.

As the final battle approaches, Roland comes face-to-face with the ruthless Unity Commander Martrim. Their confrontation will force Roland to choose between the home he has spent a lifetime trying to reclaim and the future he has fought to build. And when Arin's plans collide with his own, the fate of Willowdowns-and the future of the Resistance-hangs in the balance.

At last, Lia returns home to the son she nearly lost and begins to rebuild the family torn apart by war. But Malcolm is not the child she remembers. His wounds heal with impossible speed, revealing a connection to Arin and the genetic experiments that changed the world.

In a society built on fear of the altered, Malcolm's gift could be a miracle-or a warning.

The war may finally be ending. But for Lia and those she loves, the greatest battle may be only beginning.
