Meraude, the mage queen, is building an army to rid the land of mortals, wizards, and anyone she cannot control. The Goblets Immortal and the throne of Inohaim Tower soon will be here! But there is a thorn in her side. Summoner Aidan Ingledark has not come this far in his quest to stop Meraude just to admit defeat. But there is not much he can do while he and his love, Slíane, are locked within the walls of the House of Curses, a sentient palace run by a mysterious, powerful wizard. Aidan and Slíane have no choice but to ally with Meraude's twin children to stop the genocidal queen. The Goblets must be brought to Inohaim Tower to be destroyed...if the four can escape the House of Curses.
