Rumi and his family are Odu, stricken with poverty and disparaged
by the other tribes. When ruthless agents of the Palmaine - the
colonising nation that dominates the continent of Basmine -
threaten to destroy the village market, Rumi takes it upon himself
to liberate his family. Taking a place in the prestigious Golden
Room, where earnings from his music offer a chance at freedom, he
shoulders his pride and resentment in a bid to make it to the top.
On what should be Rumi's greatest night at the Golden Room, his
life is turned upside down. A terrifying individual known as the
Priest of Vultures attacks Rumi and his family. Before her death,
Rumi's mother, Adunola, solicits the help of a dying god and saves
Rumi, setting him on the path to become a Shadowwielder: warriors
with the ability to use their shadow as a weapon. But Rumi's need
for vengeance may be more important to him than the future of his
people...
