A millennia has passed since humanity led a Crusade against Heaven and murdered God. Now, the last of the divinities are hunted by tyrant kings for the immortality in their blood. As ancient Terrors slither from the darkness, devouring entire cities, and far to the East the Forgemistress gathers her monstrous Kin and prepares to end the Fourth Age of Man, a prophecy of rebirth, whispered from the lips of a mad angel, binds the fate of three souls… The last of the Godless Kings fighting an eternal war before the Gates of Heaven. A wildling boy fleeing from his own mother, hunted by her assassins. And a young washer woman with a deadly secret hiding in her blood is forced to make an impossible choice. When all hope seems lost, then the truest of souls take up the sword.
