When an imposter claiming to be Mâkuru shows up in the village, the real Mâkuru â" now Khalil â" must bide his time amongst his enemies, pretending to be everything that he hates in order to get vengeance.

In another part of the country where giants roam free, young Zikora Nnamani, the only daughter of Lord Nnamani, knows nothing of political intrigue â" she wants little more than to be a warrior.
