Synopsis

Shadow King is Gav Thorpe's Time of Legends novel, the second book of The Sundering. Alith Anar's family is betrayed and slain. The prince of Nagarythe walks a dark path while Ulthuan is in civil war with the druchii. He becomes the Shadow King and hunts on a vengeance that will not end.

The Sundering omnibus calls him the wrathful avenger and sets him between Malekith the usurper and Caledor the reluctant Phoenix King. Caledor in that trilogy is not the playable Imrik. Alith Anar is this novel's protagonist. A marked-target hunt in Immortal Empires is a separate campaign.
