Synopsis
Night Study, part of Maria V. Snyder's Chronicles of Ixia and Sitia, centers on a rescue mission to save Valek, who has been captured by enemies with magical means of neutralizing his usual immunity to magic, while Yelena and her allies race to intervene before danger reaches her too. With Valek's habitual resistance to magic no longer protecting him, Yelena must find a way to reach him before his captors can exploit that vulnerability, drawing her back into the political currents between Ixia and Sitia even as she continues adjusting to life after regaining her own powers and learning their new limits.
