Cover/Jacket Text:
The Raven Queen didn’t even bother to rise from her throne as she cast her spell. Red forks of light lashed out from her long black fingernails and stabbed at the second Clycallah spy. He screamed and crumpled at her feet next to his cohort. She hadn’t gotten anything useful from the first prisoner, but maybe this one will last a bit longer…
The Queen’s lips curled into a cruel smile…

Ever wonder about those other secret orders who worship the Unlife? What the Lords of Orhan and the Dark Gods are really up to? Just who that mysterious Alliance is? The answers to these and other questions can be found within!
