"Enebish has been deceived by everyone she once considered a friend. Her only hope of bringing peace to Ashkar is to unite the people of the Protected Territories and make a stand against the tyrannical Sky King. Imperial Army Commander Ghoa throws all of her power into a last-ditch effort to save her king, only to be abandoned by her fellow warriors. Now it's up to the two most hated people on the continent-- the monstrous outcast, Enebish, and the notorious war criminal, Ghoa-- to heal that spiritual divide before Kartok brings the skies crashing down on all of them"-- Provided by publisher.
