Raymond E. Feist's Riftwar Saga--a classic of fantasy literature which
no true fan should be without--opens with this tale of magic, might, and
adventure.
Orphaned boy Pug is apprenticed to a powerful court magician named
Kulgan in the world of Midkemia. Though ill at ease with the normal ways
of wizardry, Pug soon earns his place as a squire after saving the life
of one of the royals at court. But his courage will be tested still
further when dark beings from another world open a rift in the fabric of
spacetime to rekindle the age-old battle between the forces of Order and
Chaos.
Now the lives of Pug and his friend Tomas are thrown into danger and
disarray. Only Pug's strange brand of magic might yet turn the tide, in
the struggle to repel the invaders and restore peace to Midkemia.
