In the stunning conclusion to the Spellcaster Trilogy, we find our trio of heroes nearly beaten. Nadia has sworn herself to the One Beneath and must serve his bidding. Asa is doing his demonic work and furthering the gap between our heroes. Mateo is contemplating swearing himself as a demon to free Nadia. Verlaine is falling in love with Asa, even though she knows it’s a bad idea. Elizabeth further draws Nadia away from the things that anchor her to the world of light by prodding her vanity and questioning her ability to do spells, nearly killing her friends in the process. Nadia breaks more of the first laws when she tells her father about her abilities, and then runs away. Elizabeth and Asa maneuver Nadia and Mateo to both swear their souls to the One Beneath at the same moment, damning them both. Asa steals back the love that Elizabeth took from people over the centuries and gives it to Verlaine, turning the tide of if people trust Elizabeth or not, while getting himself called back to hell. But when Nadia finally realizes what she has to do to win, to go to His realm and destroy the bridge from that side, she knows it might kill her, but it would stop His rise and all of Elizabeth’s work. Nadia creates a weapon from the purest of hatred and goes to fight Him. And she discovers the truth about hell, oaths and dark magic. Will the gang stop hell from coming to Earth?
