Publisher's Synopsis
The ancients call all debts due. Evanne won't settle a tab with those long dead.
Evanne, a half-Vhemin bard with a gods-promised destiny as complex as her heritage, faces her greatest challenge yet. Known for her enchanting melodies and courageous heart, she's a firebrand of hope in dark times. But darkness has a name: Wild Sur, the enigmatic master of the Vide, an unstoppable order of assassins with a perfect record of death. This time, their target is Evanne. Armed with ancient secrets and commanding a Vhemin fortress with a portal to the demon realm, Wild Sur's ambition is nothing less than apocalyptic. Evanne isn't alone in this perilous quest. Myryntir, a resurrected wild blue dragon, soars by her side, along with Tarragon, her heart's love and a formidable swordswoman. And in the shadows, the newly empowered Raven Queen weaves her own brand of magic. But hope wanes. The demons are endless in number. The key to their salvation might rest with the lost warrior, Geneve, Saviour of Ravenswall, rumoured to be trapped beyond the demonic portal. Evanne's ancient armour might shield her body, but can it protect her from the despair of an impossible mission: to save one lost for all time? As Evanne and her allies prepare to face an entire city built for destruction and the demon and human army it protects, they must unravel the fortress's secrets and stop Wild Sur. Failure isn't just personal; it's the end of everything they know and love. This isn't just a battle-it's the final stand against the tide of darkness, where the melody of a bard might be the last sound in a world on the edge of oblivion.
