"For a thousand years the Eidolon Empire has commanded all: humans, demi-humans, beastmen, and themselves. In courts of honor and debauchery they hone their manners and their daggers. They rule with a cruelty that is made more cruel by their capriciousness.For a thousand years the demon Malvisage, the Suffering Servant, has lain chained, controlled by the Mindmask of Thrones. For a thousand years, Malvisage has waited. Tonight all that will change. Tonight the godborn will become the prey of mortals. Tonight the exquisite City of Contradance will become the City of Tombs. Malvisage commands the night, and the night is spreading to cover all the lands.Childeric, the Child of Night, Prince of the Starlight Gates, born to be Emperor, will become the ruler of desolation. Wine, blood, and poison are one. Malvisage controls all. Except Childeric. Except the Mindmask. Except the human woman bound to Childeric by ties that he cannot suspect even in nightmare.If the Marquis de Sade had written with Lord Dunsany's pen, he might have scripted the saga of Childeric the Shatterer, last Emperor of the Eidoloni. Even now, in the center of the Spiral Castle, the last deadly dance has begun. " We will combine items for reduced shipping.

In desperation, he turns to the demon Malvisage for help. The evil demon provides Childeric with the mindmask that will allegedly keep him safe. However, after being held in check for centuries, Malvisage seizes the opportunity that the naive egocentric Childeric has given him. He betrays the emperor via the mask that turns Childeric into a murdering machine.Following a Hollywood gala, Cady McCauley crashes her car. When she awakens she finds herself in a strange castle. Even weirder she recognizes some of the people she meets at the castle as being characters in a series of fantasy novels she wrote in the 1960s. Unbeknownst to her, Malvisage has opened a gate between the two realms so he can implement plans for both of them. For only she, tied to the ¿imprisoned¿ Childeric in ways no one can understand except perhaps the demon, may be able to set the born to be emperor free.The eight-year-old Eidolon Emperor-elect Childeric learns that his uncle plans to kill him at the Ascension Ceremony when he turns sixteen.
