Queen Rhynt has won the Battle of the Plain of Sorrows, but now she must deal with deceit and betrayal by her former allies, the elves, led by the mysterious and powerful Queen Daneyh, who aims to rule the known world. As Rhynt responds to this new threat, she must also deal with the gods who want to stop her and the riddle of the mysterious runes on the walls of Randall’s Cave and the Cave of the Six Arrows. Do they foretell her death or something else? Only her rune meister, Orthor, can solve the riddle, but as he struggles time and again to make sense of the runes, he wonders whether he is up to the task, as do the gods who seek to block him at every turn. What do the runes really say? The key may lie far away, in Mercadia, a mythical land of mists-and monsters.
Boswell’s award-winning series draws us in once more to a tale of heroes and gods and magic. It is a tale not to be missed, but savored.
