Creatures of the Continent

In Creatures of the Continent, the second book of the Shapewalker's Song trilogy, Sumi is on the run with Erso, looking for a safe place to hide as she learns more about her powers. Only months ago, she was just a simple shopkeeper, and now she has a centuries old magic to contend with. Erso isn't new to being on the run, but for the first time, he's taken a student with him on the road.They head first to Amoriai, where Erso's family lives, but find an unstable city where alliances are shifting quickly. Detective Parimu isn't far behind, desperate to capture the Shapewalker who escaped him. As Sumi explores the other kingdoms of Wellonai, she'll be forced to face the difficult and bloody history of the Continent that she never knew. Can she change this world, or should she just find her place in it? As kingdoms and beliefs collide, there may be more at stake than which country she calls home.
