Under the shadow of war, young Marcus tries and fails to protect his mother from terrible violence. Traumatized after her brutal death, for which he blames himself, the boy is driven north by Imperial slavers.

Slipping free, he stumbles into the Valley of the Kings, where the dead are restless and the walls of the world are thin. At the edge of death, Marcus is saved by Lord Takuri, a fearsome warrior-priest who demands unwavering service in return for aid. While voyaging between worlds, things become complicated when Marcus encounters the Shadow Prince, a prehistoric dark god who offers Marcus a miracle -- but at a terrible price. Marcus struggles to make a path through a world of war and political intrigue that is filled with prehistoric technology and twisted sorcery, monsters and demons, and lies a thousand years old. Through it all, he must decide just how far he is willing to go for a second chance.

A fresh take on science fantasy and horror, DREAMSHADOW explores the unrelenting power of the human will, the price of redemption, and the blurred line between good and evil.
