Val'Aka

After a long journey, Kalaan's frigate Ar Sorserez sails into the treacherous waters of the "Dragon's Triangle." The Count—accompanied by his family and their newfound allies, the Saint Clares—is searching for an island within the Izu Archipelago, where his half brother Val'Aka is believed to have taken refuge. Months earlier, Val'Aka was bitten by a werewolf and is now hunted by the brotherhood of demon trackers, whose duty is to eradicate monsters… including the lycanthrope he has become at every full moon. The trouble is, neither the Croz family nor their companions know which island Val'Aka has fled to—or if he is even still alive. No one knows… except, perhaps, Jwan, princess of Pount.
