Meanwhile, Illeana Grey, having escaped the occupied city of Revinport, is left friendless and alone. Her lover Taran, swept away in the fighting and horrified by the revelation of Illeana's own ability to take cat form, may be lost to her forever. She finds a travelling companion in Tal, a renegade Myar, shunned by his people for his inability to shapeshift. But when they encounter a caravan of Myar on their way home to Sian Myar, Illeana's fate takes yet another unexpected and dramatic turn. The sequel to Blood Quantum, Book One : City of Blind Angels
