This book was more like a continuation of book 5, Trials of Death, as it picked up right where that left off and brought to a conclusion most of the events started there. Like the others, it was a quick but fun read.

Darren has failed the Trials he started in book 5 and has escaped from Vampire Mountain, fleeing his execution decree. But a traitor in their midst has sent him back to warn the Vampire Princes, and face his punishment.
