Torchfire

Torchfire by Moira Buffini is the second book in The Torch Trilogy and the sequel to Songlight. Set in a world where songlight can be either a powerful gift or a dangerous curse, the story follows Lark, Nightingale, Rye, and Piper as they navigate imprisonment, rebellion, dangerous journeys, and the growing power of the Brethren.

With peace becoming increasingly difficult to achieve, the four characters pursue different paths while remaining connected by their desire to end the conflict. As survival becomes uncertain and new threats emerge, their struggle raises a central question: will those who possess songlight prevail, or will those without it?

About This Book

The Brethren are tightening their control, but the Torches continue to find ways to communicate. Lark is travelling towards Brightlinghelm with an enigmatic enemy aboard her boat, while Nightingale is imprisoned and searching for a way to escape Sister Swan's gilded cage.

Meanwhile, Rye crosses the ocean into dangerous unknown territory, and Piper is required to fulfil his role as an elite airman serving the Brethren. Although their circumstances differ, all four are driven by the hope of finding peace in a world where conflict and power continue to threaten their survival.
