En los lejanos tiempos de los que nos hablan los mitos, en la Tierra vivía un monstruo horrendo y temible: el minotauro. Era una bestia feroz, mitad hombre y mitad toro, que se alimentaba de carne humana. Su manjar preferido eran los catorce muchachos y muchachas atenienses que le entregaban cada año a las puertas del laberinto en el que estaba encerrado. ¡Qué miedo! ¡Nadie quería ser la presa de un monstruo tan terrible! ¿Existiría en el mundo un héroe capaz de liberarlos de semejante amenaza?

Quinn is back at sea—but this time, it’s dripping with secrets. After barely surviving the first trial in the Ethodine, Quinn wrestles with new mysteries as she enters the underwater world of the Nymphs--Aeron’s domain. As she prepares for the next perilous trial, Quinn struggles to keep her distance from Aeron and his gorgeous bride-to-be while also being desperate to solve countless questions: how is the ancient tome Hickory stole connected with her nightmares? Did Vale really have a romantic past with Aeron? And what is hiding behind Alys’ cold demeanor?

The tunnels are not the only terror Quinn will face next. The heirs have agreed to find Quinn’s attacker and decode the tome’s ominous prophecy together, but their new alliance is tested at every corner as they enter the underground tunnels. Hickory’s home in the Kobold city is an overwhelming maze of mystery, pixie dust machinery, and mayhem—and nothing compares with the challenge that awaits them in the next death-defying trial.

Quinn has never felt so out of control. Stripped of her precious daggers, she's thrust into the privileged world of the potion-making Sylphs and their floating sky city. While preparing for the first dangerous trial, she plots to retrieve her weapons from Moon Face at any cost. But neither task is as easy as she hopes.

Quinn has always feared the Dryad forest--now more than ever. With severe warnings from the faerie queen and another trial fast approaching, Quinn thinks she’s prepared to trek through the dark forest, especially with Alys leading the way. But when the heirs face unexpected dangers before the Trial of Life even begins, they learn there’s much more to fear than the competition itself, and that they might need each other to survive it.

Quinn’s fire and the ancient tome might be gone, but with only one trial left in the Gwyllion Mountains, at least the worst will be over soon—or so she thinks. When a new betrayal reveals a shocking truth about her brother’s death, Quinn is blackmailed into keeping it a secret. Competing in the Trial of Strength is her last chance for redemption.
