Setting of a Cruel Sun

The Helat rebels have broken the power of the demon lord and challenged the rule of their masters, the Sol-ket. But the Darkwing is merely in retreat, biding his time, and the Sol-ket will fight to their last breath to keep control of their golden cities. The power of the slaves is mounting as they rise to fulfil once-forbidden prophecies. When the Darkwing returns for his final onslaught, is anyone, soldier or slave, equipped to defeat him - especially as the cruel sun sets, beckoning a devastatingly relentless winter? In the sequel to Rise of the Blood Moon, Alan Gibbons reunites allies and enemies in a breathtaking epic adventure as they face their greatest challenge . . . the Darkwing, the ultimate threat.
