"The new book in a spellbinding sci-fi/fantasy series about an archmage happy to enroll in a magical university and find freedom from battle, until the battle comes looking for him anyway...
The moon is falling. War is coming. The time for action is now.
Cascadia and Auria have felled each other, and in the wake of the Aurian king using a weapon made from machines long thought to be extinct, the moon has awakened and has begun to fall. The ghosts of the machines speak, telling humanity that judgment is coming.
Humanity is conducting a response. War rages even as every country looks to the skies, balancing the extinction-level threat of the moon colliding with the planet and the opportunities that come with war. Countries have crumbled, and new players snake their way into the power vacuum.
Having been told to evolve, will humanity rise to the challenge? Or will Sylvester have to drag them into a new era kicking and screaming?
One thing's for sure. Syl is done hiding."
"The second thrilling installment in the epic Silent Archmage fantasy series unveils a tale of magic, war, and a kingdom on the brink of destruction.
War is coming. The kingdom is not ready…but Syl is.
Syl's first semester at the Aurian Magical Institute has been more eventful than he hoped for as he was thrust into a world of dark magic, deadly battles, and ancient secrets. After a devastating clash that left hundreds of Cascadian magicians dead, Syl knows peace is no longer an option. He and Bianca have had enough of war, but their names are still feared across the seas for no reason. They will not go gently.
As neighboring nations descend upon the kingdom and Auria starts to splinter apart on the inside, Syl realizes that this feud goes far deeper than a simple land grab. Something deeper is afoot, and the ongoing storm may plunge the entire world back into a war it can't afford.
Pride goes before the fall. The Silent Archmage has returned."

Right up until people start trying to kill them both.
