Between death still existing in the afterlife, running through death games that resembled a few videogames I had played in my past, and just trying to survive, just trying not to get squished...Sigh. And between the death of my wife a few years back, not knowing if my daughter was alive or not, and meeting a new friend who mysteriously received all my memories—even my weird dreams that I don’t want anyone to know about—and then having her expose those buried memories to everyone...Sigh. Between all those things, you know what sucks more?

Arch-criminal Tyvian Reldamar has gotten complacent. For him, he's reached the pinnacle of all he's really hoping to achieve: he's got money, he's got women (some of which aren't even trying to kill him), and he's got his loyal friends and family nearby and safe. Except...maybe not so safe. Because this is Eretheria, a city known as much for its genteel aristocracy as for its diabolical scheming. Long without a king, the scions of the ruling families scrabble for control - including levying cruel taxes and drafts on the peasantry in order to wage "polite" wars against each other.

The Nomad wants peace from a darkness within himself that he can't control. His quest for a cure leads him back into the Land of the Five Suns to unearth an ancient weapon before it falls into the hands of a madman. The weapon may hold clues to a final solution.
