About the book: year / In this world, death dictates its own laws. Either you, or you. The annual velar tournament is approaching. One step separates Haara from the desired retribution, one step Blair must take to gain his precious freedom, and one step Elof must take for the magicians to finally overthrow human power. However, not everyone will be able to get what they want, and it is not a fact that “what they want” will turn out to be something for which it is worth destroying body and soul.
