Near death from the wound received at Joyhinia's hand, Brak makes a deal with Death to save R'shiel as Tarja and the Defenders with their unexpected Hythrun ally, Damin Wolfblade, move north to defend Medalon from the Kariens.
In faraway Fardohnya, an alliance is made with Karien, sealed by the marriage of Princess Adrina to Prince Cratyn of Karien, setting in motion a chain of events that will affect the future of every nation on the continent....
In the meantime, R'shiel returns to the Citadel to confront the Sisters of the Blade. Before she is free of them she must face her nemisis and somehow find the strength to deny a god.
Review quotes:
Fantasy fans will enjoy this stupendous novel [Medalon] that hooks the reader from the opening funeral pyre of the First Sister that sends smoke in the air.

Following up on the success of her debut novel Medalon, Australian author Jennifer Fallon is back with the second instalment of her rousing Demon Child Trilogy. There's more action and a rash of political shenanigans in Treason Keep, but it's the warmth and humanity of her characters that will keep you reading.
- TV Week
With family at the heart of the novel's conflicts, however, Fallon keeps a surprisingly firm grip on the tangled political intrigue and back-room scheming. The novel's structure is brilliant, and we get to see how characters are truly products of their environments. There's plenty of action, but it's the relationships that will keep readers enthralled.
