Der packende erste Teil einer düsteren, mitreißenden Hexalogie. Das einstige Großkönigreich Paradon liegt in Trümmern. Ein Friedensvertrag hält die einzelnen Reiche gezwungen geeint, doch in den Reihen der Mächtigen brodelt es: Galihl, Herr des westlichen Reiches Aracanon, strebt einen Eroberungsfeldzug an, um den ganzen Kontinent zu unterwerfen.

Hoffnung besteht einzig in Form von Galihls totgeglaubtem Sohn, der die Macht seines Vaters brechen und den Thron Aracanons für sich beanspruchen könnte.
