In the thick of battle, formidable Parsathean commander Maddek receives news that his parents have been killed by Thalen, the corrupt ruler of Syssia. To get revenge he must use Thalen's secret daughter as retribution. But Yvenne is nothing like he had imagined. Though the blades of fury and uncertainty dig deep, Maddek and Yvenne are entwined through one common goal: to claim their rightful thrones... or die trying.
