Josef Samuelson, Duke of Hildesberg and newlywed, finally has what he has always craved: a family to love and protect and a home in which to do so. Months following the overthrow of the mad Emperor Josef XII, the Empire is still trying to settle down and rebuild. Josef and his kin-bonded friend Jan, Crown Prince of the Empire of the Zauberin, are both newlyweds wanting nothing more than to honeymoon with the women who love them. While Josef takes his new bride back to the mountains of Hildesberg to settle into their new life together, Jan takes up the challenge of learning what he needs to know to assume the imperial crown in a couple of years and how to be a husband to his own wife.Even as the two friends are enjoying their matrimonial bliss, the shadows of a danger foreseen by the assassinated Archpriest of Armacon seem to be creeping closer. Distant provinces fall out of communication, strange messages arrive at the capital and then the senders go silent, and from the previously unknown Draconian Continent comes a dire warning: an ancient enemy long thought routed has returned stronger than ever bent on avenging an ancient loss.Wanting nothing more than to be left alone, Josef Samuelson finds himself once more thrust into the middle of imperial politics of a lethal nature. With this unwanted role in earth-shaking events comes even more unwelcomed news: the time of prophesy is approaching and the Book of Vengeance is heralding the return of a spirit the Gods created eons ago on a world long since lost. This spirit, known as the Starwalker, comes only in the hours of darkest, most desperate need, when the future of the People of the Gods is on the line and a warrior of unparalleled power and skill is needed to fend off the hordes.With enemies old and new arrayed against him, threatening everything he has come to love on his adopted world, Josef Samuelson begins to discover the true power within him. Will it be enough and will he discover his true destiny soon enough to save those he loves in the coming Time of Havok?
