Waylander has built a new life far from the Drenai, but strange mists and monstrous attacks gather around the ruins of Kuan Hador. Ancient seals are failing, and an army once banished beyond a gateway between worlds prepares to return.
He joins the swordsman Kysumu, the labourer Yu Yu Liang and the beast-priestess Ustarte in a defence that depends on recovering forgotten knowledge. Waylander's final battle is not simply against another assassin or tyrant, but against an enemy that cannot be defeated by ordinary weapons and a past that refuses to release him.
