"Darkness looms over ancient Mesopotamia.
Areoch, prince of Agade, penetrates the realm of the mighty Uttuki, to deliver the captives of Angfar. The Shedu are awake, but will they be enough to save humanity from destruction?
Now Areoch and the Firstborn, Meshêk, must travel their own paths through the treacherous realm of Angfar and beyond, intent on uniting the scattered peoples of the world into an army strong enough to resist the growing Darkness. If the city-states refuse to heed the warning that doom is imminent, will the might of Agade rise at Areoch's call?
With grave danger at every turn, the greatest adventure of history unfolds in rapid succession that will enthrall to the bitter end."
