Aisling of Bruadair is frantic to find both the truth
about
her future and a mercenary to save her country. When an
offer of aid comes from an unexpected direction, she is
relieved her quest is almost complete. But she soon
realizes
her task is far from over . . . and will include perils
she
never dreamed she would ever face.
Runach of Ceangail has offered to help Aisling with her
quest, then he fully intends to take up his life as a
simple
swordsman far from magic and evil mages. Unfortunately, a
chance finding of a book of indecipherable spells tells
him
that an ordinary life is never going to be his--especially
when he realizes that the book he has in his hands belongs
to a black mage who will stop at nothing to have it back.
With time running out, Runach and Aisling must solve
what
seem to be unrelated mysteries before others find those
answers first and plunge the Nine Kingdoms into a darkness
it will never recover from . . .
