È una limpida notte di luna piena, una notte di gioia e di festa, quando il Villaggio Alto subisce l'improvviso attacco di un manipolo di spietati cavalieri che portano morte e devastazione. In pochi sopravvivono: tra questi la giovane Ailis, mentre la sua migliore amica Vevisa viene rapita. Seguendo il folle proposito di vendicare la furia distruttrice che ha falcidiato il suo popolo e ritrovare Vevisa, Ailis, che è poco più di una bambina ma ha lo spirito audace e temerario di un guerriero, intraprende la sua lunga e perigliosa ricerca.

Ailis, Figlia della Terra. Brigid, Figlia dell'Aria. Lorlei, Figlia dell'Acqua. Morigan, Figlia del Fuoco. Concepite dall'Imperatrice e dai Quattro Re sotto l'egida della Coppa e della Spada, date alla luce dalle schiave di palazzo, poco dopo la nascita sono state rapite da quattro traditori per sottrarle alla corruzione dell'ordine del Cerchio d'Acciaio, lo stesso che anni dopo avrebbe portato guerra e distruzione in tutte le Terre Occidentali.

The novel's terror is timeless. Its depiction of technological shock, mass panic and sudden ruin feels both fantastical and unnervingly possible. It exposes the arrogance of empire and the horror of facing a power we don't understand.
