In Book Two of The Thieves of Magic Trilogy...

Tessa, Ash, and Calder reunite for the next deadly quest.

Desperate to cure her mother of the delusion that she's a bird, Tessa sets out with Ash and Calder to enlist the help of the Conjurer Lord Queshire. Together, the three must cross rugged mountains beset by soldiers under Ratcher's command, hostile riders, and heat-sucking wraiths.

The situation goes from terrible to devastating when the conjuror imprisons Calder and refuses to help until Tessa and Ash bring him the Gravenwood. When they take to the sea to reach the kingdom ruled by Tessa's Uncle Mace, where they must steal the magical tablet, pirates attack them.

The now-separated companions risk everything to come together against the evil forces working against them. But none may survive the treachery of the rising despots—unless Tessa can conquer her inner doubts and unlock the secret to becoming a true conjurer.

Full of danger, heart, and magic, Gravenwood is the story of three friends bound by loyalty, their unbreakable courage, and the powerful choices that shape who we become, even when all hope seems lost.

Some artifacts were never meant to be stolen.
