The sky brighter, the land broader, everything seems grander than what they'd known in their previous lives. Yet splendor never lasts long. The consequences of their crossing soon catch up. The Rift was more than a magical barrier. It was the site of an endless battle between realms. And though that conflict was fought by the men of old, it was the gods of the East and the West who spurred it on.

The Daughters of Izdihar—a group of women fighting for the vote and against the patriarchal rule of Parliament—have finally made strides in having their voices heard...only to find them drowned out by the cannons of the fundamentalist Ziranis.

During the past year he's lived a life of leisure - drinking, partying, and ignoring the blood-thirsty monsters his race was bred to hunt and kill. His sedentary lifestyle has made him flabby and out-of-shape. He must hold his breath just to tie his shoes. He gets winded merely walking up and down stairs. And he's more concerned about pleasing his bitchy, iPhone-addicted girlfriend than his destiny as the most ruthless assassin of evil beings who has ever lived.
