Description

Centuries after necromancy nearly unmade the world, Mathaiik has devoted his life to the Idallik Knights—until the dead begin to stir in ways no history can explain. Monsters rise with impossible intelligence: forests animate and devour intruders, animals mutate into predators, and the land itself seems to turn on humanity in a surge of chaotic magic. When a sleeping Grim Lord is revealed beneath the Knights’ fortress, Math makes a dangerous choice that forces him to confront the truth behind the cycle of life, death, and forgotten catastrophe. Blending necromancy, political duty, and high-stakes magical mystery, this standalone fantasy from Jenn Lyons delivers sharp character-driven tension and a sweeping, mythic sense of dread as order collapses and a new balance must be forged before all life ends—everywhere.
