A thousand years after his death, Skilgannon is restored to life in a world that remembers him only through distorted legend. The Eternal rules through fear, armies and corrupted magic, while rebels search for a champion capable of wielding the lost Swords of Night and Day.

Skilgannon must understand an age that has borrowed his name but forgotten his choices. Joined by allies who carry their own versions of the past, he confronts resurrection, identity and the danger of repeating old violence while deciding whether a recreated man can possess the soul and responsibility of the original.
