Quote:"[Narrator Daniel Henning] fully commits to this tale, providing a nearly breathless and deliciously evil-sounding narration while also developing unique voices and presenting surprisingly layered characters." - AudioFile Magazine
"A black tide of perversity, violence, and lush writing. I loved it." -Joe Hill
A darkly compelling story of murder, a monster, and the magician who loves both.
Set against the backdrop of the plague-ridden city of Elendhaven, clinging to the edge of the ocean and stripped of all hope, you'll find a tale of retribution, magic, and monstrosity.
In the deep shadows of this forsaken city dwells a monster. With a soul as icy as it is cunning, it weaves its hands around throats, immune from the grips of death. A puppet to its fragile master who sends it on perilous errands, it becomes a weapon in a scheme too horrible to name. As the bond between the master and the monster tightens, a catastrophic revenge plan is formed.
These monsters of Elendhaven will have their revenge on everyone who wronged the city, even if they have to burn the world to do it.
