The penultimate volume of the mighty Riftwar Cycle
War rages in Midkemia but behind the chaos there is disquieting evidence of dark forces at work.
Jim Dasher’s usually infallible intelligence network has been cleverly dismantled; nowhere is safe. He feels that the world is coming apart at the seams and is helpless to protect his nation.
Quiet palace coups are underway in Roldem and Rillanon; and King Gregory of the Isles has yet to produce an heir. In each kingdom a single petty noble has risen from obscurity to threaten the throne.
Lord Hal of Crydee and his great friend Ty Hawkins, champion swordsman of the Masters’ Court, are entrusted with the task of smuggling Princess Stephané and her lady-in-waiting, the lovely but mysterious Lady Gabriella, out of Roldem to a place of greater safety. But is there any safe haven to be found?
Meanwhile, Hal’s younger brothers Martin and Brendan are attempting to hold the strategic city of Ylith against an onslaught of Keshian Dog Soldiers, and a mysterious force from beneath the sea. The Kingdom might lose Crydee and recover; but if Ylith falls, all is lost.
An unknown player appears to orchestrating these conflicts. Can Pug and the Conclave of Shadows track down this source before Midkemia is destroyed?

Mangler peter joyce. Det er mærkeligt at de har hele serien med en oplæser på nær denne her med john meagher. Som de irriterende nok har to kopier af. Har læst og hørt alle Raymonds bøger flere gange. og det er blandt de mest værdsatte inden for fantasy. Magi, og krig med mange nuancer af middelalderlige våben og livsstil.

Only reason it didn't get 4 stars is because it's a different voiceover than ALL of the previous books in this series

Hvor er Peter Joyce ? Med mindre han er død er det dælme ikke i orden at man lytter til 24 bøger med ham, og så kommer der en ny ind i den anden sidste bog, det er skisme for fattigt Mofibo
