Nothing is as it seems.

Sfaera-shattering revelations reveal there is more to the Nine Daemons - and Canta - than anyone could have imagined, and deep in the heart of Triah, a threat that has lurked below the surface for years finally rises, gathering unimaginable power.

Knot, still reeling from a shocking death, tries to put himself back together in time to fight. Two ex-Nazaniin assassins, Code and Kali, form an unlikely alliance. Cinzia, more suspicious than ever of her sister Jane Oden - Canta’s prophetess - rallies as many people as she can to save the Sfaera from imminent destruction. And Winter, the Chaos Queen herself, realises she must finally choose sides and face the greatest test of her life: finding the humility to seek help.
