Synopsis
Beyond the Shadows concludes the Night Angel Trilogy across three intertwined storylines. Logan Gyre, newly crowned king of a besieged and impoverished Cenaria, must hold his devastated kingdom together with a threadbare army and dwindling options as enemies close in from every side. In the north, a newly empowered Godking pursues a plan that could leave no force able to oppose him. Kylar Stern, drawn back into the fight alongside Logan, faces a set of demands on his loyalty, his abilities as a wetboy, and his understanding of the ka'kari's true nature, as the fates of Cenaria, its exhausted people, and the friends Kylar has sworn to protect all converge toward a single, high-stakes confrontation.
