The ancients don’t want to stay dead. Evanne will make them.

Evanne’s a half-Vhemin bard with melodies flowing in her veins. Chaos falls on her home of Imshir when the ancient mountain fortress Heaven’s Gate erupts, reawakened by a cult set on destroying all Evanne knows and loves.

In the charred shadow of the mountain’s wrath, she learns her parents are dead. Her allies turn against her. Shadowy foes from a far off land ruled by the Raven Queen hunt her. The only person more lost than her is Tarragon, a fairy warrior set on killing all Vhemin in the name of justice.

Evanne’s after justice of her own. The true culprit behind Heaven's Gate's devastation must be stopped, or more lands will fall to ruin. Trust is a luxury she can't afford, especially with Tarragon, whose past is as mysterious as the fairy herself.

Haunted by the blame of Imshir's survivors and the looming threat of the Raven Queen's foes, Evanne's path is fraught with danger. Failure means not only her demise but the potential downfall of two realms. Allies are as uncertain as the shifting winds. Evanne's only certainty is her resolve.

Will her journey lead to redemption, or will it end as a mere whisper in the saga of a splintered land?
