Publisher's Synopsis
Medalon has surrendered to Karien, ruled by its fanatical priests. This leaves Medalon's Defenders torn between loyalty to their country and what they believe in, making Tarja an outlaw once again. The Defenders have been scattered and their only hope for aid is now Damin Wolfblade and the vast army of Hythria. But Damin has his own problems to solve first, including false claimants to his throne, civil war ... and, of course, Adrina.

She must defeat Xaphista soon, for the Harshini king cannot keep his people hidden for much longer. But how can she defeat a God? The fate of kingdoms will rest on her actions ...
