Darkened Dawn (Way of Wings) Paperback – May 19, 2026
Purchase options and add-ons
From the award-winning author of The Mousai series comes the sweeping conclusion to the Icarus-inspired Way of Wings duology―where a forbidden love could save a fractured world…or bring about its end.
Cādra is on the brink of war. With their king in a coma and rebellion spreading across the lands, the winged Volari and horned Süra gather for tense peace negotiations. But beneath the momentary fragile truce simmers unrest―the mixed-blood Mütra rise, demanding the freedom denied them for centuries, as the gods themselves seem poised to intervene.
Tanwen―now a known Mütra and fugitive of the crown―and Zolya, a prince on the precipice to inherit his father’s broken kingdom, find themselves caught in a web of betrayal and divine reckoning. When their forbidden bond is exposed, they risk far more than their love―their lives, their families, and the fragile hope of peace.
Together they must decide whether their love is worth the ruin it may bring to their fractured world…or perhaps be the only key to healing it.
