Publisher's Synopsis
One by one, the Clans of the virshaan are being destroyed, body and soul. Faced with an unfathomable enemy of grim flame that is twisting the souls -- and skeletons -- of the fallen Clans into an undead army and blighting the rolling plains of Vannes with ritual slaughters, Keshan, last survivor of Ghostmoon, and the combined forces of three human kingdoms must discover the source of this ancient threat before it overtakes the entirety of the Western Reach. But can such disparate peoples, human and virshaan alike, put aside their fears and work together -- or will the corrupting touch of the King of Bones unmake the alliance from within before a chance for victory can be found?
