Sookahr is in exile, marked a traitor and separated from his home and his lover, Viirlahn. If he means to release the citizens of the Burrow from the corruptions that plague them, he'll have to venture deep into the jungle that nearly killed him once before. He must negotiate a new way for his people, and with the help of an unlikely ally, perhaps win a victory for their rodent servants as well.

In a hostile new world populated by ravenous insects, drug-addled lizards, and the dark secret hidden in the belly of the serpents' nursery tower, Sookahr must face his deepest fears.

Sometimes the hardest part of being the hero, is knowing when not to.
