Publisher's Synopsis
In the world of Erde, much of the past that should be remembered is forgotten. The last Wizard War ended two and a half millennia ago in a draw. The raising of the Partition between East and West prevented further conflict. Powerful objects were hidden or lost. Knowledge passed away. And the West grew lethargic in the relative tranquility of their existence. Their memories have faded into myth. But some history should never be neglected. The prophesies call for vigilance. Master Shawn, a traveling wizard from the Assembly of Abalem, happens upon a slave girl with more potential power than any living wizard. Could she be the prophesied Salvation? And if the Salvation has been found, then what of the Doom? Unbeknownst to the Assembly of Abalem, Salome, of the Brotherhood of Vor'Doon, prepares to open the Partition for her enigmatic and dark master, Lord Molech-the ruler of the East. She leads an army with unwavering purposes: to find The Stone of Creation and The Stone of Knowledge and use them to conquer the West. Both groups race across the land to find what has been lost and stop the other. But who will succeed? The world of Erde-a rich tapestry of kingdoms, free cities, wild men, elves, wizards, dragons and other fantastical creatures-hangs on the outcome of their battle.
