In the city of Elyrion, fear is not merely a weapon. It is the law of existence. For ten thousand years the people of the Hollow Earth have lived beneath the rule of invisible powers known only as the Distorters. Under a sky choked by silver mist, they are born into toil, watched by the Faceless Guards, and taught from childhood that obedience is safety, suffering is natural, and hope is a form of madness. Even memory itself has been trained to kneel. Illan is no warrior, no prince, no chosen hero from prophecy.

Illan, the one who shattered the Hive and opened the way beyond the old captivity, has become something both necessary and terrifying. Clearer. Colder. More exact.

Zander always stayed under his thumb. He was even forced to tell an innocent lie that sent his best friend to jail.

Nobody in the family talks about Ellen's grandmother Lola, who was swallowed up by the circus and emerged as a woman who tamed tigers and got away scot-free for killing her husband.
