Der Preis des Überlebens – Ardor Benn hat die Zivilisation vor der sicheren Auslöschung bewahrt. Sein Kampf um die Einheit des Reiches führt den Meister von List und Tücke und seine Freunde in die geheimsten Winkel der Welt, auf die wilde Dracheninsel Pekal, bis auf den Grund des Meeres und auf die Spur einer verloren geglaubten Liebe. Erneut muss Ardor Benn unter Beweis stellen, dass er sich auch in den aussichtslosesten Momenten auf seinen legendären Verstand verlassen kann.

Gentleman. Gauner. Legende. Ardor Benn ist kein gewöhnlicher Dieb. Er ist gerissen, ehrgeizig und ein Meister des komplexen Coups.

Er stellt daher eine illustre Truppe aus Fälschern, Täuschern, Intriganten und Dieben zusammen und macht sich daran, den mächtigsten König zu bestehlen, den das Reich je gesehen hat.
