The war is over. Sumeral is dead, his dark armies scattered, his body destroyed across unknowable worlds. The free lands celebrate their hard-won peace. But the travellers returning to Anderras Darion bring disturbing tales—stories of dreams invaded, forests speaking warnings, and experiments that should not be possible.
Antyr the Dream Finder, Farnor of the Great Forest, Vredech the fallen priest, and others—each carries a piece of a terrifying truth. Sumeral is whole again, struggling to return. Yet even as heroes gather to face this resurrected evil, Andawyr and the Cadwanol have discovered something worse: a threat to existence itself that makes Sumeral seem almost insignificant.
The monumental conclusion to The Chronicles of Hawklan, where every story converges and every hero must rise.
