Publisher's Synopsis
The Siren changed the world. Her new order swept Asylum and brought women to heights they hadn't seen since Artessa. The Ancient backed her every move, her cult spreading with each passing year. Mystics, sangis, humans, Solars: everyone lived in harmony under Astrid's reign. Everyone who set aside their Free Will to embrace Callings. Everyone who mattered. Crime all but disappeared, and peace settled across the planet like never before. Those with the nerve to resist her utopia didn't have the power. Order. Harmony. Peace.
Light. Blinding and inescapable. Nearly two thousand years of perfection now teeters on the brink. One wolf. His shadow illuminates the cracks in her armor, the rot within the light. A threat to all she has built and all her beloved country of Mendacia stands for. Every blow she strikes in the daylight, he rises with the moons to counter, cloaked in fiery destiny. A destiny that will shatter her world and save those drowning in it. A destiny that binds two souls across the ages.
