However, beneath the facade of diplomacy, hidden agendas lurk, leading to the ultimate betrayal of Philem's loyalty as he is traded to the Strantodians.

Guided by loyalty and the glimmer of redemption, Philem must warn those he holds dear about the impending tempest of war. Yet, the path ahead is fraught with peril, demanding sacrifices that cut to the very core of his being.

"With engaging storytelling and immersive world-building, the book keeps readers hooked as they delve into a world of political intrigue and morally complex characters." - Amazon Reviewer

"This is an absorbing novel with well-portrayed and dynamic characters. I was glued to it after reading the first lines. Now I’m waiting to continue reading the next parts. I highly recommend it." - Amazon Reviewer

"Sendrowski has created his own way to telling a tale that is totally unpredictable. You don’t need to have read previous volumes as this is a stand alone novel, with a sequel coming soon. But if, like me, you have read all there is to read (so far) about Retrac Daor, you will enjoy the references to places and characters we’ve met previously." - Amazon Reviewer
