The Holders survived Tur-Loghan. Now they must find the island where gods were buried.

Gadras Woundwing, Ang Saroth, Wrait Setis, and the battered company of Holders sail for the Isle of Dusk in search of the pieces needed to rebuild the Clock of Aldulan. Without it, the coming war may swallow kingdoms, cities, and every fragile hope they carried out of the capital.

But the Isle is no ordinary destination. Its shores shift. Its history rewrites itself. Beneath its haunted ruins lie worldstones tied to earth, wind, and fire, relics powerful enough to open the way to the abyss-or return a fallen god to power.

Behind them, Count Zabax Dilgreshar has clawed his way back from death. Vicious, immortal, and hungry for vengeance, he hunts Ang Saroth across the sea while darker servants of the Crimson Queen move to claim the stones for themselves.

On a living island of monsters, old magic, buried gods, and impossible choices, the Holders must survive long enough to seize the relics before their enemies do.

The Isle of Dusk is the second book in The Hands of Aldulan, a dark epic fantasy adventure filled with sword and sorcery, ancient gods, dangerous relics, sea voyages, dragons, undead horrors, and a quest that may decide the fate of Arioc.

The island is waiting. So is the dark.
