Sherrandon has been invaded by a force from hell. By completing the decades-long work of translating the ancient Book of Ages, King Arronai only exacerbated the fury of the Prince of Demons who renewed his cryptic vow of revenge. Thus brought the Forger, the Harlot, the Coven, legions of jinn, their general, and even Shetani himself from the Underworld realm of Küz into the otherwise peaceful Kingdom of Sherrandon. Their mission is to find and destroy the hallowed manuscript before it can be copied, distributed, and once again hidden beyond Shetani's grasp. Nothing will be spared in the struggle for the Book that can either save or condemn humanity. Sherrandon's survival - and indeed that of the entire world - depends on King Arronai to uncover the plot to "steal his heart" and repel an enemy who will show no mercy.
