While working as head chef in the Governor’s manor, Mick receives a visit from his great-uncle, who comes bearing a gift. The gift he gives Mick contains a magic that’s somehow connected to his own power. On top of that, it reignites his longing to return to Kartha, the country of his birth. Ignoring his desire to return has always been difficult, but now, even after learning why he’d been discouraged from going, it would be impossible to stay away. No prophecy could stop him.

As he weighs the risk of returning, Mick is approached by his employer—the reputable governor with a more sinister side. It'd been a year since Mick had witnessed the horrifying scene in the Governor’s study and was only a matter of time before any consequence came of it. The Governor presents Mick with an offer that’s too good to be true. Whether Mick accepts or declines, neither outcome will be good for him. But no one turns down a man like Governor Riggs.

With Governor Riggs awaiting an answer, and his uncle’s gift stirring up old questions Mick has sought answers to his whole life, his decision will alter the course of his future forever.

And may bring the destruction of an entire country.

Although Unbound is the second book in the Guardians of the Weldafire Stone series, it is intended to work well as a standalone.
