Now she and her ragtag band of companions must make one desperate final effort to stop the Master of Demons from using the scroll to call the Great Kami Dragon and make the wish that will plunge the empire into chaos. To save everyone she loves from imminent death, kitsune shapeshifter Yumeko gave up the final piece of the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. Photo: Rhododendrites / CC BY-SA 4.In the epic finale to New York Times bestselling author Julie Kagawa's Shadow of the Fox trilogy, the scroll has been taken, and no one is safe. She lives with her husband, an obnoxious cat, an Australian Shepherd who is too smart for his own good, and a hyper-active Papillion. Julie now lives in Louisville, Kentucky, where the frequency of shark attacks are at an all time low. She worked as a professional dog trainer for several years, dodging Chihuahua bites and overly enthusiastic Labradors, until her first book sold and she stopped training to write full time. So she turned to her other passion: training animals. To pay the rent, Julie worked in different bookstores over the years, but discovered the managers frowned upon her reading the books she was supposed to be shelving. The gory tales faded with time (okay, at least the illustrations did), but the passion for writing remained, long after she graduated and was supposed to get a real job. Her love of reading led her to pen some very dark and gruesome stories, complete with colored illustrations, to shock her hapless teachers. When not swimming for her life, Julie immersed herself in books, often to the chagrin of her schoolteachers, who would find she hid novels behind her Math textbooks during class. As the paths of Yumeko and the possessed Tatsumi cross once again, the entire empire will be thrown into chaos. To overthrow the empire and cover the land in darkness, they need one thing: the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. Hakaimono has done the unthinkable and joined forces with the Master of Demons in order to break the curse of the sword and set himself free. The demon Hakaimono, who for centuries was trapped in a cursed sword, has escaped and possessed the boy she thought would protect her, Kage Tatsumi of the Shadow Clan. Kitsune shapeshifter Yumeko has one task: to take her piece of the ancient and powerful scroll to the Steel Feather temple in order to prevent the summoning of the Harbinger of Change, the great Kami Dragon who will grant one wish to whomever holds the Scroll of a Thousand Prayers. It had one task: to seal away the powerful demon Hakaimono. One thousand years ago, a wish was made to the Harbinger of Change and a sword of rage and lightning was forged. Japanese mythology, adventure and magic swirl together in book two of New York Times and USA TODAY bestselling author Julie Kagawa's mesmerizing Shadow of the Fox trilogy.
