Balfruss is a battlemage, sworn to fight and die for a country that fears and despises his kind. Vargus is a common soldier - while mages shoot lightning from the walls of the city, he's down in the front lines getting blood on his blade.

Kell Kressia is a legend, a celebrity, a hero. Aged just 17, he set out on an epic quest with a band of wizened fighters to slay the Ice Lich and save the world, but only he returned victorious. The Lich was dead, the ice receded, and the Five Kingdoms were safe. Ten years have passed; Kell lives a quiet farmer's life, while stories about his heroism are told in every tavern across the length and breadth of the land. But now a new terror has arisen in the north. Beyond the frozen circle, north of the Frostrunner clans, something has taken up residence in the Lich's abandoned castle.

Einst war die Stadt Voechenka für ihre Musik, Kunst und Schönheit bekannt, aber nun ist sie verwüstet und trostlos. Die einstige Metropole steht unter Belagerung, und manche sagen, sie sei verflucht. Der Krieg des irren Königs Taikon und seines dunklen Hexenmeisters ist zwar vorüber, doch nicht alle Kriegsopfer sind so tot, wie man geglaubt hat... In jeder Nacht seit dem Ende des Krieges greifen ruhelose Untote Voechenka an und locken die Lebenden in ihre Welt jenseits der Gräber. Die junge Friedenswächterin Tammy, die Verräterin Zannah und der Kriegsmagier Balfruss müssen sich zusammentun, um gegen die Untoten zu kämpfen.

Der irre König Taikon wurde besiegt und der Westen befreit. Doch das Reich hat sich noch lange nicht vom Krieg erholt. Furcht und Misstrauen spalten die Völker; Magier werden aus Angst vor ihren Kräften ausgestoßen und verachtet. Die junge Königin Talandra steht vor der scheinbar unmöglichen Aufgabe, die Völker zu vereinen und das Reich zusammenzuhalten. Als die Stadt Perizzi von einer grausamen Mordserie erschüttert wird, prallen Wächter, Spione und Mörder aufeinander und drohen, die Stadt in einem Blutbad versinken zu lassen.

Der Auftakt zu einer epischen Trilogie um die letzten Kriegsmagier steht in bester Tradition der grimmigen, heroischen Fantasy! Das Reich steht am Rande der Vernichtung und wird nur durch eine Handvoll Krieger vor einer Bedrohung aus Wahnsinn und Machtbesessenheit geschützt. Battlemages - Kriegsmagier - sind selten geworden, und ein Heer, das nur als Speerfutter dient, steht ihnen gegen einen übermächtigen Feind zur Seite.

It's been 10 years since the Battlemage War, where thousands died as mages sundered the earth and split the sky. Habreel believes eradicating magic is the only way to ensure a lasting peace. He will do anything to achieve his goal, even if it means murdering every child born with the ability. As deaths involving magic increase and the seat of magical learning - the Red Tower - falls under suspicion, two students and one lawbringer must do everything they can to combat Habreel and his followers before magic disappears from the world for good.

Voechenka is a city under siege. Decimated by the Battlemage War, its restless dead attack every night, begging the living to join them beyond the grave. Three survivors will fight to save the city. Tammy, whose investigation could rescue Voechenka from its grisly fate. Zannah, who must pay penance for her war crimes. And Balfruss: scholar, traveller and battlemage.

"I can command storms, summon fire, and unmake stone. Animals have nothing interesting to say, and no one can see the future because it has not been written," growled Balfruss. "It's dangerous to meddle with things you don't understand." When you fight magic with magic, nothing is certain. Balfruss is a battlemage, one of a vanishing breed, sworn to fight and die for a country that fears and despises him.

The people of Perizzi have survived the battlemage war, but their future is looking darker than ever.... Byrne is a member of the Watch, investigating a series of murders. Fray's expertise with magic is needed to catch the killer, but working with the Watch destroyed his father years before. Choss is a champion fighter trying to diffuse a war in the underworld. Katja is a spy from a foreign land attempting to prevent a massacre that will topple two dynasties.

The land is in turmoil. Mages are hunted by men and gods alike. Even their own kind betray each other in the name of safety and protection. With their last refuge fallen, two young mages must conspire against a god to show the world their abilities aren't a curse - they are the only way to ensure lasting peace.

A plague rages in the streets of Perizzi. City guards rally to deal with riots while the young magicians of the Tower pool their healing powers to find a cure. Elsewhere, new alliances are formed to stem the rising darkness strengthening a deity who feeds on pestilence and decay. Gods, Sorcerers, and Battlemages must set aside the past and their vendettas to work together or risk unleashing greater suffering than they can possibly imagine.
