A harsh winter is settling in across the land and the Shadowkings' deepest, darkest plans are hatching . . . the worst is yet to come.
Far to the north, the Shadowking Byrnak broods on his towertop. Mistrustful of his fellow Shadowkings and harried by a ghostly fragment of the Lord of Twilight, he knows he must utterly crush the Imperial remnants and their allies, despite the powers of the Earthmother goddess. But his is not the only power moving in the world . . .
The forces of light must stand together against the darkness, but their leaders are unsure of their next step. Ikarno Mazaret, now Lord Regent, still grieves over the death of his beloved, the mage Suviel. Ranging forth from the city of Besh-Darok, he takes ever more perilous risks.

Keren Asherol remains haunted by her shattering encounter with one of the Daemonkind, while her twin, the mirrorchild Nerek, is dogged by sinister omens.
And then the onslaught begins . . .
