Publisher's summary

The legend of Tal Harrenfel has a new, dark chapter to its legacy, and its hero quests alone into the East.

Though Tal intends to end Yuldor's war himself, Garin and their companions follow closely on his heels. Elendol is in ashes, and its queen has been replaced by one sympathetic to the East. Fleeing the destruction left in his wake, Tal leaves behind all those he loves in an attempt to save them from further harm. His aim is simple: Find Yuldor and claim the Worldheart from him, no matter the cost.

But Garin and the others won't let Tal sacrifice himself so easily. Setting off in pursuit, they intend to offer what help they can. However, not all the company's aims are the same. The East is fraught with imposing challenges, formidable monsters, and dubious allies. And survival is only the beginning, for its Emperor has a scheme in mind that may throw the World off its axis....

Epic

The legend of Tal. Satisfying and entertaining. High contrast guides the reader with anxious interest in the players. Rare story telling. Immaculate performance.

Tom's Bad Review

Tom failed to grasp some pretty important concepts in book 2 as to why it is that way with Garrin. Freaking amazing book and highly recommend.

Good sequel

More of the same action, but it’s nice to see Garin growing in his skills.

This book as good as the first

Many authors put time and energy into the first book of a series to capture an audience and then produce only marginal books for the remainder of the series. Not so with this series! If anything, I think this third book may be the best, so far, in the series .
