They kneel in forests, lie beneath mountains, and rest at the bottom of the world's ocean. For thousands of years, men and women have awoken with strange powers that are derived from their bodies. The city Mireea is built against a huge stone wall that stretches across a vast mountain range, following the massive fallen body of the god, Ger. Ayae, a young cartographer's apprentice, is attacked and discovers she cannot be harmed by fire. Her new power makes her a target for an army that is marching on Mireea. With the help of Zaifyr, a strange man adorned with charms, she is taught the awful history of 'cursed' men and women, coming to grips with her new powers and the enemies they make. Meanwhile, the saboteur Bueralan infiltrates the army that is approaching her home to learn its terrible secret. Split between the three points of view, this masterful narrative reaches its conclusion during an epic siege, during which all sides must fight for their lives. As the siege of Mireea is laid, the loyalties of Ayae, Zaifyr, and Bueralan will be tested, as from beneath the city and its bloodstained caverns, secrets emerge, enemies are revealed, and their world hangs in the balance." -- Provided by publisher.
