Review Summaries
"The Messenger of the fire-god Ashar has arrived. He is gathering the tribes of the Beltrevan together to create the Horde to destroy the Kingdoms. The Lord of Tamur and his wife, the Lady Yrla (former Sister of the Light) have a son who may be the Chosen One. Kedryn only knows he wants to prove he is a man. What awaits him at the Lozin Forts will show him what he is and what the Prophecy has foretold may be true."
