Asher is alone. Faced with returning to her ordinary life or accepting her responsibility as the Heir, Asher has taken a leap into the unknown. As she struggles to control the Crafting that threatens to consume her, Darven's power increases day by day. Crafters and non-crafters alike no longer know who to trust, and the Threads are tangling.

Without the Weaver to maintain the balance, the fate of the five universes rests heavily on Asher.

Desperate to save Hestawen, Asher travels through Andera and across the stars. Meanwhile the threat of war continues to grow, and she must find friends and allies among the treachery.

With every challenge Asher learns more of what it means to be the Weaver and finds that some choices are much harder than she ever imagined.
