Book description
Marla Wolfblade is reeling from the loss of her closest advisor, who
taught her how to rule a kingdom and to take control of Hythria. But
Marla's plans for revenge are disrupted when she discovers a dangerous
adversary. And on their borders, a neighbouring kingdom has massed its
troops for invasion. Damin Wolfblade, Marla's eldest son, finds his
ability to fight back is thwarted by tradition, politics and the
dangerous foolishness of the High Prince. Back in the city of Krakendar,
Damin's uncle Mahkas awaits news of the battle and has sealed the gates
against his nephew's return. With the population on the brink of
starvation, it seems only theft on an unprecedented scale can free
Krakandar from Mahkas's madness and tyranny... and destroy Hythria's web
of secrets and lies. Jennifer Fallon was born in Victoria, Australia,
the ninth child in a family of thirteen girls. Her prolific career
includes work as a youth worker, store detective, advertising sales rep
and executive secretary.
