Once a hero, now a warlord, Darrow faces the ultimate battle for freedom—and himself.
Ten years after leading a revolution to overthrow the Society, Darrow finds his dream of peace buried beneath endless war. Burdened by the cost of his choices, he embarks on a desperate mission, knowing it could save his people—or destroy everything he has built.
Across the galaxy, others are drawn into the tide of fate. A young Red girl flees tragedy and forges an unimaginable new future. A grief-stricken ex-soldier must risk everything to steal the galaxy’s greatest prize. And Lysander au Lune, the heir of the fallen Sovereign, dreams of rebuilding what Darrow has torn apart.
As their stories intertwine, destinies clash in a struggle for the soul of a shattered world. Can Darrow rise again, or has his revolution doomed them all?
