Armed only with a magic sword, Shiara, an idealistic young woman, seeks to fulfil an age-old prophecy and end the eternal rule of the Ghost protectors, freeing each of the Six Cities from their immortal rulers and bringing liberty to their citizens.
But these rulers have spent centuries shaping and controlling the society of each city in their own way. Her quest upends the lives of everyone, from well-meaning councillor Marin to revolutionary leader Koralia. Conflict and chaos await, with countless lives at stake and civilisations hanging in the balance, Shiara is faced with the reality of momentous change and must make the right choices.
But what are the right choices?
In this richly imagined, exciting and thought-provoking political fantasy, Cyrus Bales skillfully interweaves high adventure and an account of idealism versus reality to examine the price of social change.
