With a darkness growing in the west and answers to be found in the north, Sorne must leave everything she has ever known to become someone who can help shape the course of history. Companion to The Lady Penitent and The Desolate Throne.

There is something wicked in the air. Legions move, demons plot, and the world shakes on its foundations. No living thing is safe as the flames that scorched the Wild Reach move ever closer and closer to the realms of men. The Princes of Iron seek one thing above all other things, an artifact without equal from a long forgotten age: the Desolate Throne. The only thing between them and the conquest they desire is a fragile alliance, a few staunch companions, and the Lady Penitent. One way or another, the world as it was known is ending. Sequel to The Lady Penitent.

"It is an army of one purpose: the destruction of the world of men." It has been a thousand years since the Revealing and the shattered world remains as bitterly divided as ever. Magic, rare and dangerous, rules the battlefield alongside knights in armor. Demons of a forgotten age hunt the darkness. Dragons and monsters stalk the wilderness. In the west, an ancient evil stirs and only a few stand between the world and the brink. At the center of the storm is the Lady Penitent, Holland Cea Trădată, a former servant of the demon lords now caught between a love she can never have and the echoes of an ancient prophecy. More sorcery than woman, she can feel the call of demons in her half-hollow heart. The lines blur, loyalties war, and the whispers of the Deceiver threaten to corrupt her soul...

They say the gods are dead, but the truth is that some things are not so easily escaped. The greatest war of its age has burned itself out, leaving its heroes to find a life among the ashes. For some, its end means a return to an old world and old wounds. But the flames of revenge and hatred sparked more than a decade before have chilled to embers under the touch of something ancient, something evil. Beneath the sign of the white wolf, a darkness once thought buried in the hearts of men is walking the earth, and its eyes are fixed on the woman who once had a heart of fire. Fate is stirring and Death herself cannot stop it, but that is why she has a champion. **Sequel to Heart of Flame**

Reyn has nothing but secrets. Everything she is or has ever been becomes another reason to be despised. Born of demons, pursued by justice, and haunted by regret.

Ban's betrothed is left to hold a kingdom together while he must contend with dragons, goddesses, and goblins. His failure has been ordained by fate, and his battle is lost before he can raise his blade. There is no one for him to turn to save for a pair of fugitives, a healer and an assassin.
