“Everything was much simpler when the Magic Council wanted me dead.” Once considered a magical degenerate, Dragonborn mage Alex Doering spent much of her life hiding who she was from other supernatural beings. But now she and the other Dragonborn are finally free. Freedom is not what it was cracked up to be. With the untimely return of an evil long-lost enemy and a looming final battle with a centuries-old organization of supernatural-haters, Alex is desperate for allies. Unfortunately, the allies she counted on - the most powerful magical dynasties in the world - decided at that moment to start a civil war. Besieged by betrayals, Alex and her assassin lover are forced to fight both enemies and allies in order to save the world. But winning this great war will ultimately cost Alex everyone she loves... and everything she is. Shadow Magic is the fourth and final book in the Dragonborn Alexandria urban fantasy series.
