As a schoolboy, Fedeles Quemanor barely survived being possessed by sorcery. Now he'd gladly abandon all matters of magic to more ambitious people. His happiness lies in more simple things: riding horses, the joy of friends and family and dancing with Ariz Plunado.
But when he discovers that Hierro Fueres, the Duke of Gavado, is raising an army of enthralled assassins to seize the crown, Fedeles is shaken to the core. Worse is the revelation that the ancient spells protecting their nation from an ravenous curse are being dismantled.
The murderous power lurking in Fedeles's shadow could be enough to secure the nation of Cadeleon. If only Fedeles can face the darkness that once possessed him.
But even as Fedeles takes on the challenge, his agents, Atreau and Narsi, learn that the threat at heart of the capitol has grown beyond the bounds of their nation. Unless they take action, Count Radulf, the ferocious Scarlet Wolf of Labara, will destroy it and all of Cadeleon along with it.

Freshly graduated Master Physician Narsi Lif-Tahm has left his home in Anacleto and journeyed to the imposing royal capitol of Cieloalta intent upon keeping the youthful oath he made to a troubled writer. But in the decade since Narsi gave his pledge, Atreau Vediya, has grown from an anonymous delinquent to a man renowned for penning bawdy operas and engaging in scandalous affairs.
What Narsi―and most of the larger world―cannot know is the secret role Atreau plays as spymaster for the Duke of Rauma.
After the Cadeleonian royal bishop launches an unprovoked attack against the witches in neighboring Labara, Atreau will require every resource he can lay his hands upon to avert a war. A physician is exactly what he needs. But with a relentless assassin hunting the city and ancient magic waking, Atreau fears that his actions could cost more than his own honor. The price of peace could be his friends’ lives.

The Rifter: Volume Six
When he was ordained as the Kahlil of the Payshmura Church,
Ushiri Ravishan left behind his name and home. In the foreign
world of Nayeshi, he watched over the destroyer incarnation of
the god Parfir, though the young man—John Toffler—had no idea
of his own deadly potential.
Only once in ten years does Kahlil desert his duty. One night
he returns to Basawar to rescue his sister, Rousma, from the burning
convent of Umbhra’ibaye. After a deadly battle against the
witch Ji Shir’korud, he returns with his sister only to discover that
John and two of his friends have intercepted a message meant for
the Kahlil alone: the golden key that unlocks the Rifter’s death.
Unwittingly, John and his friends have used the key and traveled
to Kahlil’s home world of Basawar.
Though the Great Gate is damaged, Kahlil attempts to follow
John in order to stop him from unleashing apocalyptic ruin on
his home. However, the passage back to Basawar leaves Kahlil
badly injured and deeply changed. When he arrives he no longer
possesses the Prayerscars that marked him as Kahlil, nor does
he bear the ugly red scar that once disfigured his face. But most
jarringly, his memories of his world’s history and his own past are
now all wrong. The Payshmura church had been utterly destroyed
and the Fai’daum revolutionaries now rule most of the northlands.
