Erevis must prove his loyalty to Selgaunt and the Uskevren.

In the 2nd book of the multi-author Sundering series launched by New York Times best-selling author R.A. Salvatore, the shadow legacy of Erevis Cale lives on even as his old foe Mephistopheles seeks to stamp it out at any cost. Cale's son Vasen--unmoored in time by the god Mask--has thus far been shielded from the archdevil's dark schemes, alone among the servants of the Lord of Light who have raised him since birth. Living in a remote abbey nestled among the Thunder Peaks of Sembia, Vasen is haunted by dreams of his father, trapped in the frozen hell of Cania. He knows the day will come when he must assume his role in the divine drama unfolding across Faerun. But Vasen knows not what that role should be . . . or whether he is ready to take it on. He only knows what his father tells him in dreams--that he must not fail. Enter Drasek Riven, a former compatriot of Erevis Cale, now near divine and haunted by dreams of his own--he too knows the time to act is near. Shar, the great goddess of darkness, looks to cast her shadow on the world forever. Riven has glimpsed the cycle of night she hopes to complete, and he knows she must be stopped. At the crossroads of divine intrigue and mortal destiny, unlikely heroes unite to thwart the powers of shadow and hell, and the sundering of worlds is set on its course.

Anyone can escape danger. No one can escape the truth. When a ship full of Sith warriors arrived in Galactic Alliance space, the fight to destroy it accidentally uncovered a hidden menace: a long-hidden group of clones, secretly created as insidious weapons capable of wielding the Force and heedless of the differences between light side and dark side. Now the clones have escaped—and evidence suggests that they are flawed by genetic disease and violent madness. Jedi Knight Jaden Korr pursues the clones, hoping to heal them but prepared to destroy them. What he doesn’t know is that Sith agents are hot on his heels, determined not only to recover the clones for their Master but to capture Jaden for their own dark-side purposes. In a life-or-death battle, Jaden will confront a shocking reality that will rock him to his core and bring him face-to-face with the question of what makes a man . . . and a Jedi.

Stranded on a hostile planet amid insurgent action, the Emperor and his apprentice, Darth Vader, must rely on each other, the Force, and their ruthlessness to survive. Anakin Skywalker is now just a memory, with Vader firmly established as a Sith Lord. His loyalty to the dark side is unquestionable, but the history of the Sith is fraught with betrayal and power struggles, and Vader's true allegiance is about to be tested. On Ryloth, a vital planet for the Empire due to its slave labor and spice production, a fierce resistance led by Cham Syndulla and Isval rises against the oppressive regime. The Emperor is determined to assert control over Ryloth by any means necessary, whether through political maneuvering or brute force. Accompanied by Vader, he embarks on a personal mission to crush dissent. For Syndulla and Isval, this is a chance to strike at the heart of tyranny. However, when an ambush forces the Emperor and Vader to crash land, they must confront inhospitable terrain and a formidable resistance. Their relationship will be tested as they face the ultimate challenge: will their brutal bond make them powerful allies or deadly foes? With only their lightsabers and the dark side of the Force to rely on, the stakes have never been higher.
