Publisher's Summary
Treason! Zarilina, scribe to the cruel emperor, forges imperial orders. She saves her home, but condemns a village to death. If her treason is discovered, the emperor may see her executed. Dorian, her beloved crown prince, will not let that happen. Sent into hiding at an old mage’s tower, Zarilina learns the art of magic, and discovers she is the catalyst to Dorian’s plan…the overthrow of the emperor.
At the edge of the empire, Able finds his village aflame, and his pregnant wife murdered by imperial soldiers. Fleeing into the woods, he turns to an old druid for guidance and learns of ways to bring his wife back from the dead. An ancient spell, requiring the body of the one responsible for his wife’s death, is his only hope. Believing the emperor himself is to blame, Able sets out to assemble an army and march on the Imperial City for revenge…but only the dead are willing soldiers.
