"Full of surprising twists, shocking betrays, and baffl ing
mysteries. But at it's heart it's about courage, wisdom, and hope..."
--Robert Liparulo, author of The 13th Tribe, The Judgment Stone,
and the Dreamhouse Kings series
The throne is redeemed, but the battle is just beginning.
In the dark corners of an ancient land, evil lurks in the shadows.
Powerful druids haunt the spaces of their lost territory. Double-minded
noblemen fight for domain and influence. Invaders from the north
threaten the kingdom of Magnus. This land of promise and redemption is
mired in deceit and corruption.
The Orphan King, once victorious in conquest, appears to be losing his
grip on his seat of power. Thomas rules Magnus, but does not know whom
he can trust. His enemies anticipate his every move, thwarting him at
each turn. Something is not right.
Under attack, both in the supernatural and natural worlds, Thomas must
reach back into the secret layers of his past to find the strength and
wisdom to fight his battles. When the mist clears, who will stand with
him?
