For millennia, the Jade Moon and the
Ual-leen have fought in the murky underworld of the galaxy. Most
people remain unaware of them, but their struggle spares no
one—not even the innocent. Maya and Ihy raise Ianus,
a young monk orphaned when he was two, in a Jade Moon monastery
far away from the dangerous life in the underworld that killed
his parents. Ianus comes to accept his adopted parents as his
own flesh and blood. When he receives a vision of
Ihy’s murder, Ianus plunges deep into the underworld. With the
help of his friends, he determines to face the people who
murdered his birth parents. But Ianus fails to realize the
Ual-leen’s real goal—to steal an ancient and powerful relic.
Now Ianus must save his dying father and recover the relic. Will
he be able to navigate the underworld successfully, or will he
fall victim to the murderer’s plot? In a rush to save Ihy and
his friends, Ianus must wrestle with far greater principles: do
we have free will or are we slaves to our circumstances? More
importantly, is it worth sacrificing life and freedom for order
and security? |
