In a world where words can kill, the language you speak marks the destiny of your soul...[and] now, in the weak twilight of waning hope, a stranger has appeared. His name is Gideon. No one knows where he came from, but they all recognize his power. And both the Sa’lei Lords and those straggling few who still resist them want to discover the truth of who he is—for hope and fear that he might be the prophesied redeemer who is destined to remake the world once more…for good or ill.
