The Dust Devils is the second book in internationally bestselling author Sean Williams’ Broken Land trilogy. Ros is alone once again in the desert with his camel. His friend Adi’s spirit is with him—but that isn’t where it should be. And while the desert might seem empty, it’s full of danger. How is he going to survive the Dust Devils, the sand bandits—and get Adi’s spirit back to her body before it’s too late?
