Publisher's Synopsis
Kaul was but a mongrel. Born of a dark elf father and half-breed slave mother, there was little place for him in the land of Ardwel. But Kaul's spirit burned with the fires of adventure, and soon he would make himself known to all by fiery deed. While seeking allies in a world of enemies, he came upon two women; one young and brash, filled with passion to carve her name in Ardwel's earth. Her name was Aeren Grey, protege of Audrey Vincent, Baroness and ruler in the Kingdom of the Sun. The other, Reena, a dark elf enchantress, wild as a forest sprite and more than a match for Kaul's lusty nature. But Reena held a secret of her own that soon would shake the very core of Elvenkind. As the drums of war beat loudly in the land, and Drow and elves prepared to meet upon the field of battle, Kaul schemed his way through it all, a trail of enemies in his wake. What would his Drow and Orcish blood conspire to, given the chance to win a city and its fortunes?
