Eric Van Lustbader returns to his world of Kundala to unearth new riches of wonder and excitement in this second volume of The Pearl Saga.

With the help of her friends, Riane, the prophesied redeemer known as the Dar Sala-at, saved Kundala from annihilation. pre-serving natives and V'ornn invaders alike, by securing the Ring of Five Dragons. Yet it did not open the magical Storehouse Door as expected. That sorcerous treasury remains sealed because the spell cast to migrate Annon Ashera's male V'ornn psyche into Riane's dying Kundalan female body also breached the Abyss, releasing daemons imprisoned there aeons ago by the Goddess Miina. Now the fiends must be vanquished, not only so the quest for the Pearl can continue, but to save Annon's mother, Giyan, who has been possessed by the archdaemon Ilorolaggia. Their only hope is the fabled Veil of A Thousand Tears.
