City of Stone and Silence by Django Wexler

In this gripping second installment of the Wells of Sorcery trilogy, a fierce young woman skilled in combat magic embarks on an epic mission to steal a legendary ghost ship.

After surviving the Vile Rot, Isoka, Meroe, and the rest of Soliton's crew finally arrive at the ship's mysterious destination, the Harbor—a city of great stone ziggurats, enshrouded in a ghostly veil of Eddica magic. Royalty, monks, and madmen live in a precarious balance, taking shelter from monstrous living corpses by night. None know how to leave, but if Isoka can't find a way to capture Soliton and return it to the Emperor's spymaster before a year is up, her sister Tori's life will be forfeit.

But there's more to Tori's life back in Kahnzoka than the comfortable luxury Isoka intended. By night, she risks danger to help run a sanctuary for mage-bloods fleeing the Emperor's iron fist. When she discovers Isoka is missing, her search takes her deep into the mires of intrigue and revolution. Tori has her own secret—the power of Kindre, the Well of Mind, which can bend others to its will. With Isoka's fate on the line, Tori will use whatever means necessary, even if it means confronting the brutal magic she's spent her life denying...

City of Stone and Silence is an epic YA fantasy filled with magic, political intrigue, and unexpected romance. Fans of strong female leads, diverse characters, and thrilling adventures will be captivated by Django Wexler's cinematic storytelling.
