Aryx is dying. A powerful thaumaturgist has disappeared.

While Aryx conceals his illness from Sebastian, the hunt for the missing thaumaturgist takes them across the galaxy, but they are soon embroiled in an age-old conspiracy.

With Sebastian unaware that Aryx's health is in rapid decline, things may be about to take a turn for the worse.

My desire to know more about the magic and the unanswered questions from the first book was in vain as this book raised more questions than it answered. There's a third and final book on the way, and I don't think I can going to pick it up. The mysterious beings can murder everyone in Synthesis universe for all I care.
