Riyune the dog dies in the myth worlds, binding the desert heart and protecting the real world from horrific chaos. Yet, he still lives, and returns with Trulliç and Nadeem. The emperor, denied the desert heart, turns his attention to Trulliç, determined to destroy the desert magician. How can Trulliç, still young and untrained, possibly defeat the mighty army poised at the border? The Ghost Dog-the final book in the dark epic the Tanesh Empire Trilogy-pits untrained farmers against dedicated soldiers, sister against sister, and magician against magician, with no guarantee of winning. Be sure to read the first two books in this immersive trilogy: The Glass Magician and The Desert Heart.
