Book description
Nerak is defeated. Steven Taylor has cast the malevolent dictator's
soul into the Fold's inky void - but the evil that controlled Nerak and
brutalised the people of Eldarn has escaped, and taken Mark Jenkins with
it. Steven must put his own feelings to one side, for Eldarn's fate
still hangs in the balance, and he remains the land's only real hope. As
he and his companions make their way across country, rallying what
remains of their allies, Mark, no longer the affable teacher from
Colorado, disappears into the foothills of the Blackstone Mountains,
determined to excavate the Larion spell table and use its awesome power
to destroy Eldarn. During an epic sea journey to the enemy strongholds
of northern Malakasia, Steven discovers he is stronger than he thought,
but a confrontation with Mark is inevitable . . . Is Steven willing to
kill his best friend and face eternal exile in Eldarn to save two worlds
from annihilation? Return to Eldarn for this towering finale, where our
heroes face a terrifying army of mutated beasts, and the mysteries of
the Larion Senators are waiting to be unlocked, for good or for evil . .
