The Four Lands face their darkest hour as mysterious invaders wielding unstoppable magic sweep across the realm. These brutal conquerors first destroy the most powerful Troll armies, then turn their fury on the Druid order itself. Dar Leah, former High Druid's Blade, recognizes their merciless leader from past encounters. He knows their only chance lies with Drisker Arc, the Druid now imprisoned within the vanished fortress of Paranor. While Drisker searches desperately for ancient knowledge that might free him, Dar seeks out Tarsha Kaynin, a young woman gifted with the wishsong's power. Her magic might be the key to pulling Drisker back into the world of the living. But as the scope of the invasion becomes clear, they discover this devastating force may be only the beginning. A far larger army waits behind them, one determined to achieve nothing less than complete conquest of the Four Lands.
