About this audiobook

An assassin possesses no greater skill than outsmarting one's enemies. The Holy Knights of Warding stand above all other threats—stoic fanatics whose influence reaches far beyond their honorable façade. Deeply entrenched in Alchester's halls of power, their web of alliances is nearly impossible to untangle. Meanwhile, the Jakaree death priests stand on the verge of freeing the Dark One from his ancient prison. With the Unifying Convergence approaching, the barrier between worlds grows thinner. If they succeed, eternal darkness will consume all. Thieves, scientists, and King's officers—the most implausible of allies—must unite against both threats. Yet desperation makes for dangerous alliances, and dismantling the Warder Primus's plans while preventing the Dark One's return may prove an impossible balancing act. When treachery and ancient secrets lurk around every corner, only the skill of the Nameless Assassin can navigate the perilous game of power threatening to consume them all.
