A princess condemned to death. A knight riddled with doubts. And the monster that hunts them both.
The young knight Danica's sword had always been her life. But when she must stand between a princess and the vicious empire that wants her head, it is not her skill with a blade that will make the difference, but how well she can lead. On a fraught journey across a fallen nation, hounded by foes and aided only by a mysterious priestess and a vengeful thief, Danica must find her resolve and keep the realm's future alive. Yet when loyal friends prove false and all paths lead into darkness, can she guide her companions to safety? Or will Danica crumble and condemn them all to a terrible fate?
Swords will clash. Kingdoms will fall. Heroes will rise.
