After eliminating Sifa Grent, the Planeswalker that destroyed his hometown, Dack has settled down in Ravnica to do what he does best: break in and steal the secrets from Ravnica's rarest artifacts. But upon uncovering the half of a strange gauntlet, Dack is led to a strange new plane: the realm of Theros, a sun-dappled ruled by gods and inhabited by mythological beasts!
- Dack Fayden follows the trail of his most recent stolen artifact to Theros, where he makes his way to a sinister island that holds the secrets of his newest acquisition. But such powerful artifacts are rarely left unguarded...
- Dack Fayden has managed to assemble the powerful artifact that first brought him to Theros. But as a monster of the deep attacks the vessel he sails on, Dack must put his new acquisition to good use... and fast!
- Dack Fayden remains in Theros with his new artifact - a powerful gauntlet that holds many secrets. But those secrets may bring trouble to Dack's doorstep... and the Planeswalker thief will have to face a foe unlike any other.
- A new threat stalks the nightmares of the people of Theros and it's up to Dack Fayden to figure out a way to stop this new enemy.
