To find her Muse, she must first find herself. Sylvia Baker used to live for music: constantly listening to artists like M83 and Moonlight Bride, writing songs, and playing drums in a band. But now, the soundtrack of her life is silence. If she lets the music back in, she's worried she will return to her delusions about the Muses--the mystical beings who inspire artists to create art. She's worried she'll have to face the wounds of losing Vincent, her Muse, her love. She tries to move on, immersing herself in the real world--working at the grocery store, mending her relationships with her friends and her father, and developing a new love for hiking. But in her dreams, she is forced to face the questions growing in her heart. What if they never were delusions? What if a vicious battle between the traditional Greek Muses and modern Earthly Muses tore her from the world of the Muses? What if she never lost Vincent at all? And what if he's the one who needs to be saved?
How far would you go to protect the world of Art? Musician, Sylvia Baker, has been through a lot to find her place in the world of the Muses. She's always seen these mysterious beings as they Inspire artists, which led her to stay in a psychiatric hospital multiple times and question her own sanity. She's finally accepted the Muses and her connection to them, and she's fallen in love with her Muse, Vincent, as they create music together. She even climbed Mount Olympus to save him. But while she was in the Village of the Gods, she managed to wake Ares, the God of War. Ares latches onto a conflict between the traditional and modern Muses, starting a war between them. As the war rages on, it threatens Sylvia, Vincent, and all the Muses she has come to love. But when she discovers she may be the key to ending the war, she has an impossible decision to make before Ares and his followers destroy everything. Fans of The Mortal Instruments and Daughter of Smoke and Bone will love the exciting conclusion to The Muse Chronicles trilogy.
