Synopsis
Aisling Cathedral is in ruins. Rodrick Myndacious, Bartholomew and Maude Bauer are rumoured to be dead, and the king has taken Sybil Delling as his bride. Captive and drugged, Sybil remains determined to vanquish him as she once vanquished the Omens, even if she destroys the kingdom's faith, and herself, in the process. For in a land where stories repeat themselves, where a king can prove as cruel as a god, the only way to truly destroy the Stonewater Kingdom's faith is to save it.
