From the bestselling author of Ender’s Game comes Gatefather–the third installment of the Mither Mages series

Explore a contemporary world where magic intersects with the modern realm, hiding ancient gods, goddesses, and the powerful Mages of Westil, exiled to Earth for millennia.

Danny North is the first Gate Mage to be born on Earth in nearly 2000 years, or at least the first to survive to claim his power. Families of Westil in exile on Earth have had a treaty that required the death of any suspected Gate Mage. The wars between the Families had been terrible, until at last they realized it was their own survival in question. But Danny survived. And Danny battled the Gate Thief, and won.

What he didn't know at the time was that the Gate Thief had a very good reason for closing the Great Gates–and Danny has now fallen into the power of that great enemy of both Earth and Westil.

Ancient secrets are revealed, destinies are challenged, and both Earth and Westil hang in the balance.
