The highly anticipated sequel to the action-packed dark fantasy SILVER UNDER NIGHTFALL!
Perfect for fans of CASTLEVANIA and Jay Kristoff's EMPIRE OF A VAMPIRE!
Bound by fate, united by darkness.
Vampire hunter Remy Pendergast and his unexpected vampiric royal companions, Lord Zidan Malekh and Lady Xiaodan Song, are on the road through the kingdom of Aluria again after a hard-won battle against the formidable Night Empress. Xiaodan, severely injured and powerless, causes the trio to seek refuge at the mysterious Court of Wanderers.
Meanwhile, Remy must confront his strange dreams of the Night Empress, a woman he has long suspected to be his own mother. As family secrets unravel, Remy must face a heart-wrenching choice between his parents' legacies and his own destiny.
Disguised as Malek and Xiaodan's human familiar, Remy navigates the vampire courts and a series of gruesome murders. All while the trio's unbreakable bond is tested as they unlock new, formidable powers, each revelation exacting a new devastating toll. The cost of power may prove too high in this thrilling tale of love, betrayal, and supernatural warfare.
'Sharp, thrilling, and action-packed, with a hell of a bite'

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Chupeco ups the ante in their spellbinding sequel to Silver Under Nightfall. Following a triumphant first battle with the malevolent Night Empress, the polyamorous trio of Lord Remington "Remy" Pendergast and vampire nobles Zidan Malekh and Xiaodan Song makes their way to Zidan's court in Fata Morgana. There, the eight vampiric courts that make up the Allpriory, the vampire-governing body, convene with the aim to install Zidan—against his wishes—as the Allpriory's new leader, hoping his rule will unite all vampires to defeat the Night Empress. The assembly is interrupted, however, by a mysterious attacker, leading to a clever plot twist that's best left unspoiled. Far more political than the series opener, the narrative this time out revolves around thorny court intrigue as the vampire nobles, despite biting off more than they can swallow, band together against their common enemy and unravel the mystery of the Night Empress's true identity. Meanwhile, steamy scenes and a dense exploration of vampire-human relationship dynamics add edge as the queer trio's romance grows deeper than mere infatuation. This keeps the series going strong.
