Raul has vowed never to go back to being a slave again. Relentlessly pursued by the Vamogars—the marauders that terrorize the land—he is chased to the far edge of the known world. There, along the ocean's shore, he finds a city like he's never seen before, untouched by the barbarian hordes.

Everywhere within the city's walls are astonishing works of art—mysterious, enchanting art—and citizens strangely obsessed with creating it. Citizens who are driven by a malevolent ghost to imitate the works of the city's long-departed Immortal masters.

Why had this shining city not fallen to the Vamogars? Could it be a haven for Raul? Or a trap? Could he find a way to use this place to escape his captors?

Raul will lose them here, or die.
