James has fought many enemies and won, but he may be unprepared for the battle within himself. He not only has to stave off his Quietus instincts to consume others, but now there is a powerful enemy inside his mind, struggling to take control of his body. But he can't worry about that now. With the Sages forming an alliance with the Ancient Knights, they are one step closer to saving the world and defeating the Sorcerers, but their journey won't be easy. The Knights have a device that will ensure they are put in charge after the Sorcerers are gone, but no one is willing to give up their power. Enemies old and new wait in the shadows for the right moment to strike. Friends struggle to stay the course, and the world waits in anticipation for the outcome. James and Catherine reach the end of an era as they navigate a world full of magic and wonder, mystical beasts and songs of legends, kings and sorcerers, and breathtaking action.
