Mark of the Dragon is the continuation of Robert Stanek's multilayered epic fantasy adventure begun with Keeper Martin’s Tale, continued with Kingdom Alliance, and last told in Fields of Honor. In his acclaimed Keeper Martin’s Tale, he introduced us to the story of Ruin Mist, an extraordinary world of magic, adventure and intrigue. Now in the eagerly awaited follow-up to Fields of Honor, he once again proves himself a wonderful storyteller with a gift for fast pacing and believable storylines. Already hailed as a classic, Robert Stanek's powerful series has been enjoyed by readers all over the world.

The Elves of the Reaches returned from exile, bringing grave
news. War came to the Kingdoms. Many perished in the turmoil
and unrest. An attempt was made to kidnap a princess and
assassinate a king. Now, from the ancient past a dark power
returns. "The Fourth Wind blows across the mountain tops,"
they say. And the Twelve Clans emerge from myth and memory.

As prophecy becomes reality, the factions struggle for
control, only to further divide the lands. Some would say
that King Andrew Alder foolishly agreed to support the Elves
of the Reaches, sending men to aid their cause when the
causes of all Men in all lands were being put to the test of
steel. And in the North, men back their words with action.

Against a backdrop of treachery and intrigue, murder and
mayhem, the price of free will is high. Many will pay with
their lives. Many will succumb to imprisonment and
enslavement. For when alliances shatter, old hatreds rise
anew and the plotting and scheming begin.

Bold, inventive, brilliantly imagined, Mark of the Dragon is a novel of magic and wonder—a tale of pure excitement you will not soon forget.
