The Chronicles of Eden 2: The Hermit

Uncontrollable power. A shattered throne. And a Lord of the Underworld who thirsts for revenge. Claire has escaped the Underworld, but she has paid a terrible price – she has lost control of her dark power. While the court's intrigues lure her to the capital city, her guide has another goal. He is leading her to the mysterious Hermit, the only one who can confirm if she is truly the fabled heir to the goddess. But to even survive the journey to him, she will have to learn to tame the darkness that flows through her veins. Meanwhile, panic is breaking out in the capital. Queen Tristen discovers that the threat is not just the revealed heir, but also a hidden enemy at her own table. And in the depths of the Underworld, a new plan is being forged. The humiliated ruler changes his strategy – brute force is replaced by deadly intrigues and an alliance of convenience, designed to strike Claire where she is most vulnerable.
