They burned Ronan’s brother at the stake.
The world called it justice.
Ronan calls it murder.
Driven by grief, guilt, and questions no one else seems brave enough to ask, Ronan begins studying his brother’s so-called “mental condition” in the Northern Network. But the deeper he digs, the clearer the truth becomes.
His brother was not crazy.
He was not dangerous.
Something was different, yes—but not evil.
Something gave him sight into the future.
And his murderers called it madness.
To understand what really happened, Ronan must leave behind the safety of scholarship and travel across Alkarra in search of answers. He has never slept beneath the stars, hunted for his own food, or crossed the world alone.
He is twenty-four years old.
A scholar.
Naive to danger.
But grief will not let him stay still.
Redemption is not free.

It pains me to say it, but I had to give myself permission to abandon this one. It is the only book written by Katie Cross that I honestly did not enjoy reading. I've heard from other readers who loved it though! It's a different style than the other books. Go ahead and give it a try.
Katie eloquently connects and expands her magical Alkarra world, exploring our humanness through her characters.
She’s another great author. And who doesn’t love dragons and magic?
Another captivating read! Hard to put down and not read in one fell swoop. I look forwards to reading more by this author. Good writing and fun to read.
This was a great addition to all the other books Katie Cross has written on Ankara.
To travel with Ronan and seeing Alkarra through different eyes was so entertaining. Though he is a scholar and a bit of a tortured soul, I enjoyed traveling with this odd, lonely and charming man… hearing his stories and adventures was interesting and helped me learn and understand a bit more of the history behind the stories I’ve come to love and enjoy!
Thank you Katie for this lovely man, I’m sure his strangeness is not for many, but I enjoyed traveling with him.
