When All Lights Go Out

Sometimes a crimson star, visible only to the chosen, flares up in the sky, known as the Eye of the Abyss. The World of the Four Realms stands on a dangerous edge, for each of its risings may herald the return of demons. Those who do not see the ominous signs are busy with intrigues and struggles for power. They do not yet know that the reckless act of an unknown sorcerer has already set in motion a fatal chain of events capable of collapsing the familiar order of things; that the immortal puppeteer is already preparing to play with others' fates.
The young prince Shenli will have to learn how closely his fate is intertwined with the fate of the world. But first, he must survive in the brutal struggle for the throne.
