Dravos has fallen into a new star system, sunlight blazing down on a civilization that’s never known day or night. Its people are terrified. Its nobles are plotting. Its king wants answers Jack doesn’t have. And the Archon Draven—the centuries-old tyrant Jack thought he'd disposed of—is recovering somewhere in the mountains, preparing for his next move. With rebellion spreading and old enemies becoming uneasy allies, Jack, Lisa, and Erik must hold a fragile kingdom together long enough to strike back. Because if Draven rises again… this time there won’t be anything left to save. Jack never wanted to be the hero. Too bad the universe didn’t give him a choice.
