As war with the Elves draws nearer, Navin's insistence on going his own way gets him cut from piloting duties, just when he is needed most. Meanwhile, Emily, Trellis, and Vigo are taken into the Void by the Elf loyalist Max, who says he needs their help. But can they trust him? Kibuishi's complex story, which seamlessly blends science fiction with mystical fantasy, is a sure-fire hit with older children and young teens. This sixth installment in Kibuishi's popular Amulet series, however, will likely be confounding to readers new to the tale, so be sure to have the first five volumes of this beautifully illustrated story on hand, too.

Gr 4-6 Navin and his friends travel to Lucien, a mysterious city that has been left in ruins, to find a beacon that will help them conquer the Elf King. But are they walking right into a trap? Emily journeys to the Void with Max, one of the Elf King's disciples and learns more about her traveling companion. Their adventures place both of them in true danger. This hotly anticipated installment in the "Amulet" series will be devoured by fans.
