Our view
“City of Light” closes Will Wight’s “Traveler’s Gate” trilogy by bringing its three leads together against a larger threat. Simon, Leah and Alin now hold power of very different kinds, as a hunter, a queen of refugees and the ruler of a city, and the vanishing of the Incarnations tips their world once more. It is an adventurous finale built on magic and war, and it only makes full sense after the first two books.

About the book
Simon spent the last six months hunting Incarnations and has begun to realize that his power alone won't be enough to stop a true enemy. Leah is queen over a nation of refugees driven from their homes by the fury of Territories gone mad. Alin rules his city with an iron fist imposing the virtues of Elysia on an imperfect population. Now the three must stand united as the balance of the world shifts once more. A greater threat looms and it has made its presence known... The Incarnations are missing.
