Persian princess Zofia knows it is her destiny to mix blood with Prince Alexander. If Zo can find the legendary Spirit Eaters, she might escape her fate and protect both her people and the citizens of Macedon from the coming devastation.

Princess Cyn is about to become ruling Queen through marriage to the mad king of Illyria. But if she can attain the power of Smoke Blood, she will not only free herself from her deranged husband but attain enough strength to be sole ruler of her mother's native land.
