Imaro, warrior of the Ilyassai, has settled into his new life as a husband and father in the fabled kingdom of Cush. Amid his growing restlessness, unspeakable tragedy strikes, sending Imaro on  a grim mission of vengeance. His adversary has no face, but he does have a name: Bohu, the Bringer of Sorrow – a sorcerer of immense power and cruelty. As Imaro seeks a confrontation with his most formidable foe yet, turmoil spreads across the continent of Nyumbani. The balance between the forces of good, represented by Cush, and evil, represented by the pariah land of Naama, has been disrupted. The gods themselves may have to declare war with one another, before this balance is finally restored. In the midst of a coming cataclysm, Imaro travels the length of Nyumbani in search  of Bohu. During his journey, Imaro finally discovers his own identity – but will this knowledge help him as he battles a formidable array of enemies bent not only on his destruction, but that of Nyumbani itself?
