The lie must die was the warning Brekszta gave Alex, and she thinks she might now understand what the Old One meant. Traveling through the Sídhe branch of the Tree of Reality, the mages unravel the history that led to the first invasion of Earth. The threat of the Darkness looms with only theories of how to stop the disastrous force before it destroys all worlds. A decision awaits the mages at the dead homeworld of the Sídhe where it all started. Merlin and Morgana have survived for millennia by adapting to each new era and area they lived in. In times of crisis, they fought back the enemies of Earth with their magic. But such a life takes its toll even on the strongest souls.

Arthur is dead, but the Light is now in control of his body and determined to cut the Iron Realm off from the Tree of Reality. Representatives of the species dwelling on Earth join the mages to discuss the danger of the Darkness and the Light's proposal. Still, Alex knows that severing their world's connection to the Tree of Reality is not the answer. Turning to her past, Alex leads the mages to Wyoming and a Medicine Wheel she hopes has the key to stopping the Darkness. Akule was a hunter and warrior for his band and tribe. He had a wife and children and was content. Yet, his eyes turn to a strange dead spot growing in the lands he calls home. Dreams and strange visions are his only guidance against this devastating Darkness dripping through the sky. Staying behind when his tribe leaves, Akule knows in his soul that he must stop the tide of destruction before it is too late.

Alex's priority is investigating the Tree of Reality regardless of Merlin and Morgana's doubts. She knows that Arthur is also seeking information, but the question is why. With the Darkness looming and Arthur's power growing, the mages have little time to find answers. Even worse, a new threat has entered the Iron Realm, which will test the Iron Soul as it has never been before. Nicolas was not Morgana and Merlin's ideal incarnation of the Iron Soul. So, they dealt with him. With a child Iron Soul now in their care and the population of Fae rising throughout Europe, the Grand Mages know it is only a matter of time before violence erupts. But a strange dancing plague and a new Fae leader calling himself Oberon was not something they could have ever predicted.

Alex and her fellow mages are trying to settle into the routine of another school year, but Arthur and Queen Scáthbás are still plotting. As the attacks on their Ravenslake home increase, the mages must discover new ways of using their magic and protecting each other. Questions about the Demons, the Sídhe, and the Tree of Reality linger, and Alex knows she has to find the answers before it's too late. Dobiemir was a farmer and a father. With his only remaining child sick, that was all he wanted to be. But strange creatures made of cold and shadow are stalking his home. The harvest is dying from their cold, and his son is worsening. Hope comes in the form of two strangers with extraordinary powers who even have the assistance of gods, but they aren't content to deal with this themselves. Instead, they drag Dobiemir into their dangerous world to confront the mad god Chernobog.

With the magically bound Fae still out for blood, the mages need a way to break the spell. Merlin seeks Mjǫllnir, the Iron Hammer forged by Thor. But the Hammer is missing and the mages must unravel the mystery of its history.

A call from an ancient ally takes the mages to India. A Demon horde has found a way around the defense of the Iron Gates and is building an army to take over the Iron Realm. The Desai family, descendants of one of the past Iron Souls, welcome the mages with open arms, but how can Alex reconcile with an old family when she's lost her modern one? Lokpal was a warrior, trained from childhood to protect his home from the Demons who wander the land. Nothing prepared him for a god slipping into madness. When two strangers with magic arrive, he must navigate between his culture, his family, his beliefs, and the long-standing traditions the Grand Mages uphold if they have any chance of stopping the Demons.

They saved Aiden, but Arthur is still out there, and fae creatures have gone mad. Ravenslake is under attack from beings that have lived peacefully on Earth for thousands of years. Alex wasn't supposed to be the hero, but she must step into the role. The responsibilities of guarding the Iron Realm, leading the mages, rebuilding her friendships with Jenny and Lance, and protecting her family have landed on Alex's shoulders.

Corrupted Sídhe known as Dark Elves, threaten the villages of ancient Norway. A young man named Thor with magical powers steps forward to save not only humanity, but the Old Ones and the peaceful Sídhe regardless of what Merlin and Morgana have to say.

Alex Adams never considered herself a hero, much less the hero of the magical war she found herself a part of. She was only a mage because worlds never meant to interact were doing so. Merlin and Morgana trained her to control her powers, but nothing had prepared her for Arthur. Yet Alex has a promise to keep even if she didn't feel ready. Aiden's life was hanging in the balance and their best chance was in an artifact created by another Iron Soul and lost centuries ago. Now the newest generation of mages must leave Ravenslake behind and find the Iron Chalice to have any hope of saving their friend.Years after losing Arto to Medraut's betrayal Merlin and Morgana discover a young man with familiar talents. He is the key to answering a question from their past and revealing their futures. However, the Old One Badb is seeking the power of Cathanáil. It had taken all their power and the Iron Soul to end the last war, but now a new battle is looming on the horizon.

Magic arises when invaders from other worlds threaten the Earth and it empowers mages to fight back the threat. Legend and history blur when mages emerge to protect the world and now they are needed once more. The newest generation of mages is struggling to balance their ordinary lives as college students in the small town of Ravenslake and their duty to defend an entire world from beings whose very physical nature is utterly alien.Still Alex Adams can't help but feel optimistic.

Yet the mysterious Old One Chernobog is on his way with only a strange vision to guide them: a vision that warns of betrayal.

When the physical forces of multiple worlds come into conflict, magic appears. On our world certain humans are given the ability to control this energy in order to fight back the threat. In Ravenslake, home to a small university, a new generation of mages has been called forth as an ancient enemy of Earth seeks to return for slaves and control over the world.Alex Adams now has at least some control over her magical powers, though magic lessons with Merlin and Morgana are still on the agenda. The more she learns about the war she's now a part of, the less confident she feels. She still has feeling for Arthur Pendred despite his status as the reincarnation of the warrior mage who inspired the story of King Arthur. Complicating things are his girlfriend Jenny who is Guinevere and his best friend Lance is of course Lancelot. That story never ends well and to protect Arthur, Merlin and Morgana are ready to destroy the threat even if it costs Alex her friends. With the Sídhe still poised to attack, it is only a matter of time before an ancient betrayal destroys the fragile balance.
