She traveled to the past and stopped the Magician from destroying a mystical book that held the key to freeing her people from the Brink, an energy barrier that traps all Mageus who cross it. But the Book was more than she bargained for. So was the Magician she was tasked to steal it from. Hunted by an ancient evil, Esta and Harte have raced through time and across a continent to track down the powerful artifacts they need to bind the Book’s devastating power. They’ve lost family, betrayed friends, and done what they’d both vowed never to do: fallen in love with the one person who could truly destroy them. Now, with only one artifact left, their search has brought them back to New York, the city where it all began. But nothing in Manhattan is as they left it. Their friends have scattered, their enemies have grown more powerful, and as the deadly Brink beckons, their time is running out. If they can’t find a way to end the threat they’ve created, then the very heart of magic will die—and it will take the world down with it.

      Ta książka wyjaśni ci zachowanie twojego psa i pomoże zrozumieć, co ma do zakomunikowania. Po prostu pokaże świat widziany oczami psa. Kto z nas jako dziecko nie marzył o tym, aby rozmawiać ze zwierzętami? Kto nie zna opowieści o Doktorze Dolittle? A co jeśli się okaże, że porozumiewanie się ze zwierzętami jest możliwe? Oczywiście, nie w taki sposób, jak komunikują się ludzie. Pies nie przyjdzie i nie powie: Słuchaj, tego w tobie nie akceptuję, to i to mnie bardzo denerwuje, a te małe smaczki treningowe są świetne. Niestety, tak się nie stanie. Jednak pies nie jest zupełnie pozbawiony możliwości porozumiewania się z człowiekiem. Badania dowodzą, że pies rozumie ludzką mowę na poziomie dwuletniego dziecka, a w niektórych przypadkach nawet go przewyższa. Wszyscy rodzice wiedzą, że jest to całkiem niezły wynik. Problem tkwi w tym, że człowiek, chcąc być rozumianym przez psa, często zapomina, że nasz pupil też mówi, że też wysyła nam jakieś znaki i powinniśmy, jako właściciele czworonogów, tego języka się nauczyć i rozumieć go.
