COVER COPY
Seven hundred years ago, a Black Widow witch saw an ancient
prophecy come to life in her dazzling web of dreams and visions.
Now the Dark Kingdom readies itself for the arrival of its
Queen, a Witch who will wield more power than even the High
Lord of Hell himself. But she is still young, still open
to influence--and corruption.
Whoever controls the Queen controls the Darkness. Three men,
sworn enemies, know this. And they know the power that
hides behind the blue eyes of an innocent young girl. And
so begins a ruthless game of politics and intrigue, magic
and betrayal, where the weapons are hate and love--and the
prize could be terrible beyond imagining.
