Description

Book Two of the Chronicles of Hawklan. The darkness of ancient times is spreading within the land of Fyorlund and tainting even the Truly Amazing Harmony of Orthlund. The ailing King Rgoric has imprisoned the much-loved and respected Lords Eldric, Arinndier, Darek and Hreldar; he's suspended the ancient ruling council of the Geadrol; he's formed their own High Guard, filling its ranks with violent unruly men; and Mandrocs have now been seen even yet in Orthlund. In the heart of the corruption may be the King's advisor, the evil Lord Dan-Tor, who's determined to destroy the peace won by Ethriss and the Guardians eons ago, and surrender the land to his Dark Lord, Sumeral.
