The saga of Spathi Ansdari continues in this thrilling and intense second installment of the Ravage & Requiem series. Left in utter torment deep inside the dungeons of the arctic western province of Goena, Spathi is finally given the opportunity to face the mysterious Emperor Gyeno. Breaking free from the prison, Spathi and his allies traverse the deathly wastelands of Raktogin once again as they desperately search for Staea, fearing the imminent danger and exploitations the Drixiles have in store for her. Yet, an even more insidious evil now infiltrates Raktogin, a demonic plague that warps and twists humanity into the horrifying likeness of its ravenous dark master, pillaging the dying world as an irate calamity. With vicious civil war and disquieting political schemes brooding within the fractured and unstable Penterium, Spathi questions his freedom and sanity more and more, wondering if he has merely been set loose....

Spathi Ansdari, an amnesiac corpse, is resurrected from the void by a grim shaman known as the "animal man" in the phantasmagoric, apocalyptic plane of Raktogin. Haunted by fleeting memories of his past, Spathi struggles to discover his true identity while being antagonized by an inexplicable impulse to devour blood. Spathi is labeled as a "blood-eater," since no entity on Raktogin has ever indulged such an odd appetite before. The animal man orders Spathi to avenge himself by killing his murderer in order for Spathi to pass on from "purgatory" to the next life. But is Raktogin truly a purgatory realm as the animal man suggests? Battling legions of demons, combating fierce tribes, and withstanding the hi-tech weaponry of the erroneous human military, Spathi's vengeful mission is intercepted by Staea, a capricious and deadly succubus and the only other "blood-eater" discovered. She claims to know Spathi and his bygone past but promises to reveal only bits and pieces at a time as long as he follows her. Through bizarre visions and astral projections, however, Spathi discovers other phenomena, including a suspicious ghostly infant and a mysterious force dwelling in his forehead. As Spathi discerns more clues, he unearths sinister and disturbing machinations deep within the Penterium, a demonic super-empire. With his life and so many others at stake, can Spathi uncover the key to Raktogin's survival? Or is Spathi and everyone else condemned to suffer an emerging, unspeakable darkness capable of obliterating even the heavens?
