Damien and Tarrant, two unlikely partners, must battle a potentially unbeatable foe: a monster who has vowed to destroy humanity. He goes by the name Calesta, and he is a master of deception and a devourer of agony. His goal is to reshape humanity until it survives only to satisfy his insatiable need for misery.
Damien and Tarrant's struggle with Calesta will take them from the depths of Hell to the spot where demons first appeared, and beyond. It may cost them not only their lives, but perhaps the very essence of humanity.
The magnificent finale to C. S. Friedman's Coldfire trilogy is Crown of Shadows.
