Cronus, King of Darkness, and Medea plot escape and domination while a wicked warlord crushes the Empire and threatens the Icemark. Meanwhile, a multigenerational alliance of humans, werewolves, vampires, and snow leopards fights for good. As with The Cry of the Icemark and Blade of Fire, the book's length is daunting, but fans will be drawn along by the exciting plot.
