Four strangers—Alamea, May, Nathan, and Eli—are thrust into a parallel world they never knew was theirs. Prophesied as the Second Children, reincarnations of ancient Guardians, they are the only ones who can stop the return of a goddess bent on destruction. But their prophecy has long been forgotten. Hunted by monsters, distrusted by empires, and used as pawns in a ruthless game of faith and power, the Second Children must survive deadly trials and uncover the secrets of the Tablet of Life—or watch Ny’a fall to ruin. Loyalties will be tested. Belief will be broken. And in a world where belonging is survival, one truth rules them all: Belong or die. For fans of Brandon Sanderson, Sarah J. Maas, and N.K. Jemisin, In Between begins a sweeping new fantasy saga of destiny, rebellion, and sacrifice.
