About the book: 2021 / Alex Sheppard faces the most intense week of his life, which could be his last if he doesn’t cope. Having obtained the Sparks of Hellfire, Skiff is ready to conquer Holdest in order to destroy the Core of the Plague Pestilence. Moreover, in order to deal with the undead, you need to build a third temple for the Sleepers, but how can you do this if there are no free places of power, and real life requires you to immediately fly to civilian tests? There's too much at stake. The risks are too great. Too little time to prepare.
