A fresh, fast-paced fantasy adventure from Aurealis Award shortlisted author DK Mok. When Prince Valamon is stolen from the heart of Algaris Castle, the only clue as to motive or culprit is the use of unknown sorcery. Reclusive cleric Seris, content to tend to his book-infested temple, inexplicably finds himself recruited to the rescue mission alongside Elhan, a cheerfully disturbed vagrant girl with terrifying combat skills and her own enigmatic reasons for seeking the prince. Seris, armed only with a stubborn streak and creative diplomacy, must find a way to survive outlaw towns, enchanted tropical isles, and incendiary masquerades, all without breaking his vow to do no harm. Chasing rumors of rising warlords and the return of the vanished sorcerers, Seris and Elhan soon discover a web of treachery and long-buried secrets that go far beyond a kidnapped prince.
