"A killing Dark is sweeping through the universe killing all life that stands in its path. A lone oreseeker, Jaspen, must face his inner problems and lost love in order to access the abilities he has--abilities that mean he alone might be able to save what life is left. Jaspen must find a way to overcome his emotional inadequacies in order to access his abilities so that he might have a chance to rescue the mindsparks, the living essence, of the beings on Earth. Since the bodies have no way to survive the Dark this is the only chance that there will be anything left other than total oblivion. "
