Fantasy great Tracy Hickman teams up with the video game legend Richard Garriott in this epic novel, The Eye of Scales, based on the award-winning game Shroud of the Avatar.

The sword rules all.

Aren Bendis, former soldier in the Obsidian army, has managed to protect a rebel city from his former friends and now finds his fate bound to a weapon once wielded by the Avatars themselves. Now, he is being secreted away to the capital of the last alliance of free nations with the hopes that the Hero of Opalis will lead their army against his former masters.

What Aren doesn't know is that his former friend Evard Dirae, a Craft Master of the Obsidian Order, is seeking Aren out. Worried that Aren is being manipulated against his will by the magic of the Avatars, Evard seeks to find the sword and break its hold over Aren once and for all.

Story was good. It picks up after the events of the first book and goes, so be sure to read the first book before this one.

The narration is great!

Looking forward to the next book in the series.

A great follow-up to the first novel.
