Somewhere among the myriad worlds there is one which has lost its sun. Kite is following a trail of changes across worlds - changed laws, changed lives, changed histories - hoping to locate the sun and, somehow, return it before it is too late. But the very act of searching will change more than she could imagine...

This is Kite's first quest, but she knows the principles of world walking. Tread lightly through the worlds, be unremarkable, leave no striking memories behind. Don't do magic where the locals can see - that ought to be easy, given her limited capacity. But at her first stop, she befriends Saryth, a captive sorcerer in service to a petty noble, and the castle is on fire before the night is out. She hadn't expected keeping the rules to be so difficult.

Travelling together, Kite and Saryth follow the trail of the errant sun through his world and beyond, to ice worlds, desert worlds, and worlds of desolation. For Kite, these are known territories; for her companion, it is all very different. Everything is new to Saryth. Not everything is good...

Somewhere among the myriad worlds there is one which has lost its sun. Now reunited, Kite and Saryth continue on its trail, but the consequences of their past actions reverberate across the worlds behind them...

Kite hadn't wanted to think about General Vorannen again. She and Saryth had escaped his world, albeit not unscathed, and that should have been the end of it. But as their journey continues, it becomes clear that their magic has alerted him to dangerous possibilities. The ways between the worlds are kept secret for good reason, and Kite shouldn't even have shared them with Saryth, never mind revealing them to a powerful sorcerer like Vorannen. But given what happened to Saryth last time they were in Vorannen's world, how can she ask him to go back with her?

It's only when their search for the sun leads them to a cold world where winter has lingered late, and disaster looms over the people, that the threads of their quest converge. Saryth will need all his wits and resolve as it becomes clear that, in order to complete her mission, Kite must face Vorannen once again...
