Set in an alternate Europe where bloody conflicts rage, the third

world-shaking conflict for the survival of humanity It is a crucial
time in the war-torn kingdoms of Wendar and Varre, a moment when
even one wrong decision can tilt the balance of events into total
disaster. For Sanglant-King Henry's son-and Liath-the woman he
loves-the offer of both a haven from their enemies and the chance
for Liath to study the ancient lore with those who claim her as
their own, seems like the answer they have been seeking. But no
place can truly be safe for them. Both their lives and their love
will be at risk when they are forced to choose which pathway each
will follow-lured by the equally strong demands of politics,
forbidden knowledge, and family. Liath, born with a dangerous power
beyond her control, is torn between her longing for Sanglant and
the child they are about to have and the call of sorcery, which can

those caught up in the dangers of both civil war and continuing
attacks by the nonhuman Eika and the Quman invaders, time is
running out for Liath, Sanglant, King Henry, and the people of
Wendar and Varre. For the time of cataclysm is fast approaching-and
no one can foretell who will survive-or rule-when it is over....
