As the War of the Damned rages, salvation comes in the form of an unlikely hero; Gazlan, a good necromancer. He quests to free enslaved souls from their rotting bodies and stop the necromancer feud from killing the world. But time is running out, and he can't do it alone . . . He must recruit strange allies. From a druid who puppeteers the dead to a paladin who relies on gadgets and force, all share a personal grudge against the necromancers. Will they save the world, or will they turn on Gazlan for what he is, even as he falls in love?
