The Last Light of the Hunter

For eleven winters, Aldric Vane has climbed the frozen tower of the Cartographer's Guild to chart a dying sky. But when the Hunter constellation fractures, its ancient light splintering across the heavens, an old evil stirs beneath the ice. Vorathus the Frostbound has awakened, and only the last bearer of the Hunter's light can stop him. As guildmasters, queens, and rebels scramble for power, Aldric discovers he is more than a mapmaker. The stars have marked him. Bound to Veya Stormrider, a fallen star walking in mortal form, and pursued by the monstrous Corrupted Hunter, Aldric must choose between the safe confines of his guild hall or a desperate march across a frozen wasteland to recover the scattered fragments of a shattered constellation. Frost soldiers march beneath Queen Sable's banner. Brenn the Rebel raises a forgotten army. Dame Kira sharpens her blade for a war she prays will never come. And in the shadows, an ancient Speaker whispers of a doom older than the kingdom itself. Every map Aldric has ever drawn has led to this moment. The last light of the Hunter is fading, and whether it dies in glory or darkness will determine the fate of every soul touched by the frost.
