When a battle to eradicate the Thirteenth Tribe goes awry,
the kingdoms that border Sharakhai see an opportunity—a
city ripe for conquest. Çeda, once a protector in service
to the kings of Sharakhai, uses the growing chaos to gain
freedom for Sehid-Alaz, the ancient, undying king of her
people. Like all the people of her tribe on that fateful night
four centuries earlier, Sehid-Alaz was cursed, turned into an
asir, a twisted, miserable creature beholden to the kings of
Sharakhai.But freeing him is only the beginning. As Sharakhai's
enemies close in and the assault on the city begins, Çeda
works feverishly to unlock the mysteries of the asirim's curse.
Danger lies everywhere. Enemy forces roam the city, the Blade
Maidens close in on her, one of the Kings wants Çeda to
hang—any one...
