Return to the multiverse of Magic: The Gathering as the hunt for
Liliana Vess is on in the aftermath of the War of the Spark.
The Planeswalkers have defeated Nicol Bolas and saved the
Multiverse--though at grave cost. The living have been left to pick up
the pieces and mourn the dead. But one loss is almost too great to bear:
Gideon Jura, champion of justice and shield of the Gatewatch, is gone.
As his former comrades Jace and Chandra struggle to rebuild from this
tragedy, their future, like the future of the Gatewatch, remains
uncertain.
As the Gatewatch's newest member, Kaya aims to help write that future.
In joining, she pledged an oath to protect the living and the dead, but
now that oath will be tested. The grieving guild masters of Ravnica have
tasked her with a grave mission suited to her talents as a hunter and
assassin--a mission she is ordered to keep secret from the Gatewatch.
She must track down and exact retribution on the traitor Liliana Vess.
But Liliana Vess has no interest in being found. Forsaken by her
friends, she fled Ravnica after the defeat of Bolas. She was hostage to
his wicked will, forced to assist in his terrible atrocities on pain of
death--until Gideon, the last one who believed in her goodness, died in
her place. Haunted by Gideon's final gift, and hunted by former allies,
Liliana now returns to a place she'd thought she'd never see again, the
only place she has left: home.
