In the exhilarating third and concluding installment of the highly acclaimed Maya and the Rising Dark trilogy, which Kirkus has hailed as truly #BlackGirlMagic, Maya embarks on a perilous journey to confront the Lord of Shadows and prevent the impending war between the human world and the Dark. Despite the relentless efforts of Maya and her father, the protective veil that safeguards the human realm begins to falter. The Lord of Shadows has assembled an formidable army, capable of challenging the orishas and posing a significant threat to the entire world. The clock is ticking, and it is only a matter of time before he breaches the veil and unleashes destruction upon Maya's neighborhood and the rest of the globe.

Undeterred, Maya and her loyal companions, including her long-lost guardian sister and a mysterious darkbringer (who may be working against them), are determined to fight back. Maya intensifies her training, honing her guardian powers with the support of these newfound allies. However, when an unexpected attack strikes close to home, Maya realizes she must confront the Lord of Shadows without delay. She knows that failure to do so could mean the loss of everything she holds dear.

With her friends, Eli, Frankie, Zeran, and Eleni by her side, Maya leads a courageous charge across worlds and to the very edge of the universe. The stakes have never been higher, and the odds are stacked against them. Will Maya emerge victorious, or will Darkness prevail once and for all? The thrilling conclusion to this epic trilogy will leave readers on the edge of their seats, eagerly anticipating the final outcome.
