Of Blood and Bone by Nora Roberts (2018) St. Martin’s Press
The story continues from Year One with the child who was born to be The One turning thirteen and having grown up with a step father and three younger brothers, she goes with Mallick the Sorcerer to be trained and to get ready for the battle against evil.
She meets elves and changelings, and goes on three quests and finds a white owl, who guards a treasure and will not give it to anyone who climbs its tree, a white wolf who likewise has a treasure to guard and a white horse, whom everyone fears, who turns out to be a combination unicorn and Pegasus. She eventually reaches into the well of life where she takes up a flaming sword and a shield. Having accomplished all this, she returns to her mother and family, then begins training them.
When she is ready to go to the town of New Hope, her family goes with her.
Once there she has a battle with three evil witches, a mother, father and girl. She manages to kill the father, but the others get away.
Obviously there will be a third volume.
