A Reaper at the Gates

Summary of A Reaper at the Gates

Helene Aquilla, now the Blood Shrike, is determined to protect her sister and safeguard the Empire from growing threats. But peril surrounds her. Emperor Marcus, tormented by his past, becomes increasingly erratic and violent. Meanwhile, the cunning Commandant, Keris Veturia, exploits his instability to expand her own ruthless influence—no matter the destruction she leaves behind.

Far in the East, Laia of Serra understands that the true danger lies not in the Martial court’s politics, but in stopping the Nightbringer. As she pursues him, she is betrayed by allies she once trusted and is forced into a conflict more daunting than she ever imagined.

Between life and death, Elias Veturius has sacrificed his freedom to become the Soul Catcher. Bound to an ancient force, he must surrender fully to his duty—even if it means letting go of the woman he still loves.
