Harry Blackstone Copperfield Dresden is Chicago's only openly practicing wizard. He is also dead broke. His vast knowledge and magical skills are unfortunately matched by his talent for making powerful enemies and alienating friends.

He wants to redeem himself in Murphy's eyes and make enough money to quiet his rumbling stomach.

Benedict Sorellin-Lancaster hasn't even broken in his lieutenant's insignia when he's summoned to meet with the Spirearch of Spire Albion himself for a very special—and very secret—purpose. The Spirearch needs Benedict to retrieve a bag he's "misplaced" on the Colony Spire known as Dependence, which has strangely cut off all contact with the outside world. It's a delicate mission at best, a potential bloodbath at worst. To this end, the Spirearch has supplied Benedict with backup in the form of three Warriorborn.

Alle Einwohner Aleras können Magie wirken und die mächtigen Geister der sechs Elemente zu Hilfe rufen - nur der junge Tavi nicht. Doch als Intrigen und Bügerkrieg das Reich zerreißen und die bösartigen, nichtmenschlichen Marat die Grenzen von Alera überschreiten, ruhen alle Hoffnungen auf Tavis Schultern. Denn nur, wenn der junge Mann nicht seinen Mut und seine Entschlossenheit verliert, haben seine Familie und alle, die Tavi liebt, eine Chance zu überleben.

Zwei Jahre sind seit der gescheiterten Invasion der Marat vergangen. Und während Tavi dem Ende seiner Ausbildung zum kaiserlichen Spion entgegenfiebert, droht Alera bereits neue Gefahr. Denn ausgerechnet als Kaiser Gaius Sixtus schwer erkrankt und die Mächtigen des Reichs ihre Intrigen vorantreiben, bewegen sich die Furcht erregenden Vord auf die Hauptstadt zu - uralte Schreckensgestalten, für deren Wiedererweckung auch Tavi mitverantwortlich ist.

Er ist ein mächtiger Magier. Er ist der erste Fürst. Doch jetzt ist er hilflos. Tavi von Calderon, der so lange als magielos verachtet war, sieht sich seiner Bestimmung gegenüber. Denn seine Kräfte sind endlich erwacht, und sie sind größer als die der mächtigsten Fürsten Aleras. Und das geschah keinen Tag zu früh! Die unmenschlichen Vord fallen mit ihren Horden über Alera her. Nichts scheint sie stoppen zu können. Nur wenn Tavi sein Erbe annimmt, kann er die zerstrittenen Parteien des Reiches einen.

Die wolfsähnlichen Canim sind in Alera eingefallen. Doch sie sind selbst Vertriebene, seit die schrecklichen Vord unaufhaltsam immer mehr von ihrer Heimat erobern. Tavi von Calderon, der neu ernannte Erbe des Throns von Alera, fasst einen verzweifelten Plan: Gemeinsam mit den Canim führt er sein Heer über das Meer, um die Vord zurückzudrängen und den Canim so eine Rückkehr nach Hause zu ermöglichen.
