The Necromancer's Rogue

Can a young mage mend a broken heart that's made of stone?

Apprentice mage Jyximus Faire has seen what lies beyond death. Now he's back among the living, he just wants a quiet life. But his home will be razed to make way for a rich prince's playground. And a Lord of Death wants to tear open the Veil between the worlds and destroy the living. 

The Academy's end-of-year exams would have been easier.

Except he's supposed to be dead and his tutor, the necromancer general, is locked in a notorious prison. And she wants him to work with a Shadowkin, one of a race reviled as thieves and spies.

Can Jyx go rogue to stage a jail break? Can he wake an ancient goddess and save his home? And can he keep the dead among the dead?
