An all-new official prequel novel to Shadowlands, the next expansion for Blizzard Entertainment’s legendary online game, delves into the aftermath of Sylvanas Windrunner's betrayal of the Horde. As she operates in the shadows, both the Horde and Alliance, including her sister Alleria, race to uncover her plans. King Anduin, burdened by leadership, assigns the void elf and High Exarch Turalyon to locate Sylvanas. The Horde faces a pivotal moment, forming a council to navigate the leadership void left by the absence of a warchief. Key figures like Thrall, Lor’themar Theron, Baine Bloodhoof, and First Arcanist Thalyssra step up to address the challenges ahead. However, distrust runs deep, and when an assassination attempt on Talanji, the Zandalari queen, disrupts the council, the leaders must act swiftly. They empower the young troll shaman Zekhan, grieving the loss of Varok Saurfang, to assist Talanji and confront the emerging threat. Meanwhile, Nathanos Blightcaller and Sira Moonwarden are given a daunting mission by Sylvanas: to kill the troll loa of death, Bwonsamdi. As Zekhan and Talanji strive to save Bwonsamdi, their journey becomes crucial for the Horde's survival and identity in the face of impending darkness. Success could restore their strength, while failure may lead to their doom.
