4 y separately published work icon Successor's Promise Trudi Canavan , ( trans. Isabelle Troin with title La Promesse de l'héritier ) Paris : Bragelonne , 2017 23294827 2014 single work novel fantasy

Five years have passed since the Rebels confronted the Raen. Five years, in which the boy Rielle rescued, Qall, has safely grown up among the Travellers. Five years, in which Tyen has made a new home for himself, hidden from those who call him a traitor and the Spy.

Five years of chaos in the world, barely contained by Baluka and the Restorers. Worlds are at war, some overrun by machines, some drained of magic as sorcerers seek immortality.

As war threatens Rielle and Tyen's hard-won peace, and Qall comes of age, loyalties will be decided and tested. The promises they have made could change everything. Qall's very existence depends on them.

Because Dahli has the means to restore the Raen to power, and he will stop at nothing to succeed. (Synopsis)

'A brand new series from the bestselling new fantasy author of the last decade

Since then she has been collecting information, including a vital clue to the disaster Tyen's world faces.

'Elsewhere, in a land ruled by the priests, Rielle the dyer's daughter has been taught that to use magic is to steal from the Angels. Yet she knows she has a talent for it, and that there is a corrupter in the city willing to teach her how to use it - should she dare to risk the Angels' wrath.

'But not everything is as Tyen and Rielle have been raised to believe. Not the nature of magic, nor the laws of their lands.

'Not even the people they trust.' (Publication summary)

For Sonea knows her future is in his hands -- and that only in the shadows will she achieve true greatness . . . if she survives'.
