About This Book

S. ML. Stirling. New York Times bestselling author of the Novels of the Change, continues his exciting new urban Fantasy trilogy, in which the fate of humanity rests in the bloody hands of those who are far from human.

For as long as he can remember, Adrian Breze has defied his dark heritage as a near-purebred Shadowspawn—pan of a race of shapeshifters and predators that once reigned supreme. He had left that life behind until his power-hungry sister, Adrienne, lured him from his mountaintop retreat by kidnapping his human lover, Ellen.

Now Adrienne is dead.

But before her defeat, she revealed that the Council of Shadows—tired of hiding its true might—has determined to rule the world once again. The members of the Council are gathering their strength as they decide how best to devastate. humanity.

To stop the Council from launching an apocalypse, Adrian and Ellen must ally with the Brotherhood, a resistance group dedicated to breaking the Council's hold on humankind...by any means necessary.

In the coming confrontation, Adrian must fight not only the members of the Council but also his own nature—and, he will come to suspect, traitors within the Brotherhood itself....
