300 years after the genocidal Adept Wars, the realm is dying, and the blessed Adept race dies with it. One man holds the secret to reverting this decline: Bjorn van Gelderan, a dangerous man whose shocking betrayal three centuries past earned him a traitor's brand. It is the Adept Vestal Raine D'Lacourte's mission to find Bjorn in the hope of salvaging his race. The young Prince Ean val Lorian faces a tenuous future as the heir to the coveted Eagle Throne. When his blood-brother is slain during a failed assassination, Ean embarks on a desperate hunt for the man responsible. Yet his advisers have their own agendas, and his quest for vengeance land him in a sinuous plot masterminded by a mysterious and powerful man called the First Lord. Tormented by the missing pieces of his life, a soldier named Trell head in search of his shadowed past. But when disaster places him in the debt of Wildlings sworn to the First Lord, Trell begins to suspect a deadlier, darker secret motivating them.
