A hidden city. A powerful artifact. And a deadly legacy.
A devastating battle in her home city has left Leah Anavion as queen and commander of an alliance of disparate forces brought together by necessity. In the face of a growing demon invasion, Leah seeks a safe haven for those who cannot fight, but a new plan of attack could mobilize her forces on a journey across the face of the world, straight into the heart of enemy territory.
Meanwhile, silent soldier Hook Bard embarks on a mission to recover an artifact that could alter the course of the war. But his mission brings him uncomfortably close to a painful past he thought he had left behind for good, forcing him to choose between fulfilling his duty and settling an old score.
And Justin Holmes, still reeling after a devastating defeat, needs answers. Can his allies be trusted anymore? Who is this mysterious enemy, Avagad? And what really happened in the past to bring the world of the Oikoumene to its current state?
There is only one man, in this world or any other, who knows the truth.
The odyssey continues in this third installment of the four-book epic fantasy series that readers call FUN, ENGROSSING, and JAW-DROPPING.
