    Winter arrives once every century, bringing with it ancient secrets that threaten to topple a kingdom. Mauritaine, a former war hero and captain in the Seelie Army, has been wrongfully accused of treason and sentenced to life in the dark prison of Crere Sulace, far from the City Emerald. The Seelie Queen, Regina Titania, offers him a chance at redemption through a perilous mission. Alongside him are a few trusted prisoners: Raieve, a foreign emissary caught in a dangerous situation; Perrin Alt, a nobleman imprisoned due to complex political machinations; and Brian Satterly, a human physicist searching for victims of the faery changeling trade. Meanwhile, dark forces conspire both within the Seelie kingdom and beyond. The vengeful soldier Purane-Es seeks to destroy Mauritaine, while the black artist Hy Pezho aligns with Mab to create a weapon that could enable the Unseelie to crush Titania's forces. As Mauritaine and his companions traverse the treacherous Contested Lands, filled with remnants of past wars, they face mounted patrols, brigands, and a traitor among them. With the Unseelie armies led by Queen Mab advancing, Mauritaine must choose between his freedom and the fate of the land that has forsaken him.

  2. "Im tiefsten Midwinter griffen die Unseelie die Stadt Selafae mit einer geheimnisvollen Waffe an - der Einszorn. Diese Waffe war so mächtig, dass sie die Stadt in einer einzigen Säule aus weissem Licht vergehen liess. Nach der glorreichen Schlacht von Sylvan langweilt sich der Ex-Häftling Perrin Alt als Klostermönch fast zu Tode. Als Königin Titania ihn erneut bittet, dem drohenden Untergang seines Volkes entgegenzutreten, erklärt er sich nur allzu gern bereit, das Geheimnis der Einszorn-Waffe zu ergründen. Dazu tritt er den " "Schatten" " bei: einer Organisation aus Spionen, so geheim, dass man sie für eine Legende hält Zusammen mit der Empathin Sela und dem kampferprobten Thaumaturgen Eisenfuss beginnt für Silberdun eine Hatzjagd, in dem sich das Schicksal der Seelie ein für alle Mal entscheiden soll."
