Publisher's Synopsis
The Lands of Man have been united for the first time in centuries under Rufus Viator's coalition. However, the unity balances on the edge of a knife, as the Dragon King returns from the north and the Jackals continue to burn the south. The fate of all in Erosil lies with the gods, as each among them picks their champions.
The Glen is in shock after the Dragon King's invasion. Memories of the Great War resurface as the Mirigad seems to collapse around the elves. The Lord of Olianon is forced to seek new alliances with old enemies. The child queen Elasha must rise to her role and meet the destiny her mother has refused her.
The King of Orgrar is dying. His brother, Chief Barlov, declares a truce, but rumours persist that he intends to take the crown for himself. Their nephew is the hope of the Orcs, along with his capable wife. Vynas Krath must choose between the affairs of Man's Lands and his homeland, Orgrar.
Dreyma Fireblood refuses to relent until the slaves of Velakros are free. Her crusade leads her into the path of the Mistwalkers once more. The battle for her life begins as Aeson returns to claim his ancient empire.
Friends must be wary of shadows, for friends can be schemers and ghouls.
