Publisher's Synopsis
No quarter given. No mercy shown. The war for the realm rages on with the second coming of the mad priest.
Commander Drake embarks on a reconnaissance mission to the Alaskan Dome. Scorching the frozen water from underneath, the Prince of Fire sails up the Noatak River with a Viking crew. Upon reaching the fallen fortress, however, he shall find not Constantine, but a courtesan in the dead of winter.
Treason amongst the High Council devastates Sasuke's armada at sea. Without ever reaching the arctic coastal plain, the fleet burns, adding a shade of evil orange to the northern lights of the night sky above.
Guardian Ana traverses the memories of the dead, seeking answers in the fallen realm. Discovering an unknown rule of magic, she sees, at last, what the Dark Queen wants.
Burrowing through the darkness, Reginald hears a Sayer speak. But having no voice to communicate, he'll have to bear the weight alone.
"Split the throne. Double the loss--full eclipse of the crescent moon. Son of darkness cries tears of black. The realm has already fallen."
The prophecy is spoken. Destiny is seen. And time depletes, forging forward to cataclysmic doom.
