What if death is just another stop on the Path?

Bren McAllister found his power as a witch and a warrior, but he's lost everything that matters to him. The magical world won't give him a break. Everyone depends on him for everything, but he can't get past missing the girl who stole his freedom and his heart. He has to get Jazz back, even though it's impossible. His family thinks he's crazy. His friends think he's going to get himself killed. As for Bren, he thinks maybe, just maybe, he's earned a miracle.

Jasmina Corey can't believe death is such a pain. Dark skies, dark rivers, dark monsters, oh, yeah. Death is just one funfest after the other. She can't get Bren off of her mind, except her mind seems to be leaving her in pieces. One day she knows who she is, but the next, she's not sure. As for magic, forget it. She can't even levitate a pebble, much less bind the beak of annoying peacock who won't stop telling her to wake up, start thinking, move—run!

In a race for llife itself, there's no such thing as second place. It's win or die—forever.
