The Shadow of The Ice

The Holy Kingdom burns. While two princesses vie for the throne, the undead launch a new invasion, backed by allies out of myth and legend. The elves have returned to Elessia... and they come as conquerors.

Johan, his thieving days long behind him, seeks only to live peacefully with his young daughter. But when an old ally asks him to join the rebel cause, he is pulled into the maelstrom of war as the last protector of a princess on the run.

Meanwhile, the fighting separates Knight Erika from her family during a diplomatic mission. Her only hope of reunion lies with a mercenary army. Yet their price is steep…

Unbeknownst to all, the assassin Annah hunts a craftsman of god-killing weapons in a distant kingdom. But the strange land has its own deities, and she has caught their eye.

When the warrior Andoh marches with his undead host and ruthless elven allies, razing city after city and encircling the capital, the threads of fate conspire to pull all four together.

In a clash that will reshape their world, some will rise as legends… while others will fall as dust and ash.
