They had failed. No one, not even the warrior Galen, had expected the Carrion labyrinth to be so full of devils. No one had expected Maabs soldiers to be so ferocious. Theyd failed to rescue Julian, theyd failed to recover his food supply, and theyd failed to return before their own people, giving them up for dead, built a stone wall across the Carrions only known exit. Now all they can do is try to fight their way homebut they cant make it alone. With half their number already slain, Arturus, Galen, and the Harpsborough hunters must either make an alliance with one of the Carrions darkest powers or give up any hope of seeing home ever again.
