The RiftWar is done. But an enemy has risen in
strength from the ashes of defeat - a fearsome army of trolls and
renegade humans, emboldened by the drug of destruction and commanded by
dark elves aided by the sorcery of an enigmatic cabal. But there is one
who defies the call to battle.
In a world that is not our own, war is a legacy. In a land of wonders

as former heroes take up arms once again and new ones merge to defend
to the death what is good and right in their beleaguered realm.
New York Times bestselling fantasist RAYMOND E. FEIST returns to this

It chronicles the powerful awakening of Owyn, an apprentice magician of untried strength and hidden depths, and
celebrates the selfless achievements of Pug, the greatest magician of
two worlds, who must again - though not for the last time - rise
spectacularly to new heights in the cause of those who face certain
annihilation.
Follow the master to new corners of a world you have not yet
fully explored - and experience the excitement, the terror and the
triumph born from the doom aimed at the beating heart of a kingdom: the
glorious place called...
