Years in chains have taught Princess Izidora one harsh truth: trust no one. When she is finally freed on her twenty-first birthday, Izidora finds herself in an unfamiliar world brimming with danger and intrigue. Surrounded by the warriors who rescued her, the lost princess remains guarded as they journey toward Vaenor, the heart of the vicious Night Realm. Yet, her resolve is tested by High Lord Kazimir Vaszoly, the formidable leader of the Nighthounds. He seems to orbit her like she’s his sun, ever-present and unyielding, especially when her traumatic past threatens to consume her.

One little mistake and Tresado's magical formula lands Group Six in a wasteland crawling with mutant monsters, a deadly disease, and creeping insanity that soon has them at each other's throats. Their rescue by the militia from Abakaar seems providential.

„Diese Welt braucht Menschen, die auf die Gefahr zulaufen, statt davon weg."Sean Johnston hat sein ganzes Leben lang genau das getan. Als Feuerwehrmann in Sacramento rannte er in brennende Gebäude, während andere flohen. Er starb, wie er es sich immer vorgestellt hatte: ein Kind rettend, von Flammen umgeben.

Jack Plummer hasn't slept in months. Doctors can't help. Pills don't work. Nights stretch endlessly until exhaustion becomes a way of life. Then, at two in the morning, he finds something impossible: a fully stocked, 24-hour VHS rental store in San Francisco — a relic of the past that shouldn't exist anymore. The tapes work. Jack sleeps — deeply, completely — for the first time in years. But the sleep comes with side effects. Lost hours. Blackouts. Memories that don't come back the same way they left.

When Izidora awakens to find six months have passed, her sole focus turns to revenge against Kazimir.

With Ruslan’s encouragement to embrace her darkness, Izidora sheds the remnants of her identity as a victim who was chained in a cave and steps into being the insidious bloom ready to dig her sharp thorns into the Night Fae.

Why does this keep happening to me? Kidnapped again by the Iron Fae, I must survive long enough to get back to my friends in the Night Realm. But when undeniable truth starts spilling from Ruslan’s lips, I’m left questioning everything. The web of lies and deceit thickens, and I’m at the center of a prophecy that started it all.
