Publisher's Synopsis
The kingdom of Ehrylan languishes as war spreads like wildfire. Three young warriors journey from danger into darkness trying to stay ahead of the flames. Their odyssey takes them through wood, water, and stone into strange lands. Truly on their own for the first time, the young people fight their way across the kingdom, seeking to free their people from the cruel Outlanders. They find friends in unlikely places and learn that enemies sometimes come with friendly faces. Meanwhile, in the beleaguered city of Twofords, Calen Farseer leads an army of farmers and townsfolk in the fight to throw off the bonds of oppression. The yolk is heavy. The tyrant on the captured throne is not human. Dauroth, the Everbourne king, is evil beyond measure. The Gryhm-the strongest and most terrible of his servants-stalk the land, leading their master's forces and doing his evil will. There is no rest for the warriors of Ehrylan.
