On another planet, the new faith of its first Believers is tested in the shadow of evil
In book two, readers can contemplate how biblical truths translate in another world. The planet of Corista has been thrown off its axis, and the bright side has been plunged into perpetual darkness. Are the Owling people of Shadowside to blame? With both sides of the planet in chaos, the world becomes even more confusing for 15-year-old Oriannon when her former music mentor Jesmet miraculously returns from the dead and promises his followers a special power called the Wind. But his is not the only offer of hope. Sola, Corista's charismatic head of Security, proposes the 'ultimate solution' for peace, and she recruits Oriannon to help her carry out a seemingly perfect plan. But Oriannon's closest friends are skeptical and try to convince her that the plan involves evil acts against the Owling. Should Oriannon trust the feelings of her friends? Will she embrace Sola's solution as the answer to the world's dilemma? Or will she believe the promise of an Owling holy man before she can no longer discern between light and darkness?
