It is the story of two people - Kyria, who has always felt the odd one out of the sept, unable to accept the harsh religion of the priests and determined to find her own way in life - And Hilarion, heir to the Emperor and just as determined not to be a puppet of the priesthoods. When Kyria is chosen as a human sacrifice to the Gods of Light, she discovers powers that let her escape. But the old Gods have only leant her these and in return she must travel the land and return the Light stones to the old temples if both the mortal world, and the world of the Gods, is to be saved. Meanwhile, Hilarion discovers plots against his Grandfather and the truth behind his own power. The old Gods want him to await Kyria and together bring back the old religion.
Very enjoyable read. Great world building, a good adventure and well developed characters.
