Griffin O’Shea is trapped. Again. His prison sentence was supposed to end when the magic keeping the dark fae captive in Myrkur finally fell. But when King Egan’s army clashed with the armies of Iskalt and Fargelsi on the battlefield, there was no winner and no clear path forward. Now the dark fae king is missing, vanished without a trace of the army at his back or the abducted child leading him to the prize he desires. With no way to locate the forever moving village, Griffin can only set his sights on a more attainable goal: saving Eldur from the coming invasion.

The moment Griffin crossed into the prison realm, every fae he’d ever known forgot he existed. Left with nothing - not even his magic - he’s had to survive in a land of eternal darkness where a ruthless king terrorizes his subjects. Now, he must return to his homeland with one purpose - destroy the magic binding the dark fae to the prison realm - or suffer the consequences. But he isn’t alone.
