Publisher's Synopsis
To save her brother from eternal nightmare, Princess Lirienne Valrayne must enter the terror-laden netherworld of the Shadowlands.
But first she must reach his side. Prince Amaury lies dying in a distant castle. Between them stretches a Darkness-plagued land overrun with hordes of the Soulless - peasants driven mad by fear, privation, and the unbearable void Darkness inflicts upon them. Even if Lirienne and her berserker companion Grayfell can fight their way through, will her Power prove strong enough to save Amaury? And if she does manage to retrieve her brother from the Shadowlands, what else might she bring back? In the second volume of this epic fantasy series, battle, magic, love, and betrayal haunt Lirienne Valrayne's struggle to uncover the innermost depths of her Power, and of her heart. Plunge into the Dance of Light and Dark for a journey that will determine the fate not just of all human lives, but their very souls.
