From an honoured bard to a Warlord's sexual slave ...

Brannan Marec Mavrenn, Master Bard and keeper of the possessed harp Mavrenn, has endured a year of untenable imprisonment under Samir, the ruthless Warlord of Torrent Mountain, for aiding in Samir's wife's escape after she was accused of sorcery. Torture threatens Brannan's hands, his voice and his mind, and sexual subjugation awaits him. Only after he and the Warlord discover a secret love and Brannan is proven innocent can he disclose, with the aid of Mavrenn's irresistible power, the dreadful secret he has harboured.

The Bard faces a race against time after Samir tasks him with finding a solution to the planet-wide threat descending upon them. Sharing their friendship and bodies, Brannan starts his travels with a mysterious Alsar Guardian and an old Warrior to his homeland in the North, seeking proof the Warlord's allies will accept.

But a terrifying heritage will haunt him, for when you are descended from the Shadow Lord, all doors are open-even the gates of Death.
