A City in Ruin (The Dark Sorcerer Book 2) Kindle Edition
Strange fires threaten to destroy the city of Nelar that Jayna alone can’t stop.
After stopping a powerful dark sorcerer, Jayna finds herself a target. Not only does the Sorcerers’ Society think she uses dark magic, the Celebrants of Asymorn want vengeance for her interference. She’d leave the city, Ceran has shown her that something worse is still to come.
When it does, she’s still unprepared.
Nearly killed by a strange fire even her dark magic could not extinguish, she needs to find those responsible before the city is destroyed—or worse, plunged into war.
Even stopping the fires might not be enough. The dark sorcerers have begun to move, and Jayna might need to surrender to her magic in order to stop them.
Filled with action and adventure, A City in Ruin continues the epic fantasy adventure of The Dark Sorcerer series!

- Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseWant heroes that charge forward into danger? This is a series that you do not want to miss. Hard to put down once you read the start.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 28, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThe second book brings more talent to our main character and continues to show us how she works with friends to keep the city safe from those who wish for a different outcome. I was glad things ended the way they did, it was a surprise. This author continues to keep you guessing about some of the parts which helped this reader stay glued til the end. Thanks for another great read!
- Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseIn this series, Holmberg makes his character likeable as she discovers her path and power. To me, the best of his various series that don't focus on dragons, which I feel are his best books. While set in the Chainbreaker universe, his character development is better than that in Chainbreaker.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2021Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis book grabbed me from the first few pages, and wouldn’t let stop reading without feeling a sense of anxiousness about doing so, as if something may change within the story while the book was closed.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 7, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseJust like the first book in the series, an easy read. The main character does never seem to sleep though. And it is always night, but the characters are likable enough and the action never stops.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 28, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThis author writes excellent stories. This is one of those. Read it and enjoy. It has everything a book of author puts in his book.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2021Format: KindleVerified PurchaseThings definitely become more complicated as this story unfolds. Deadly fire attacks in parts of the city ment to sew discord take place And Eve regains some of her memory.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2022Format: KindleVerified PurchaseAn intriguing series so far, with an interesting cast of characters. Can't wait to get my paws on the next book in this series.
