Praise for Tad Williams: "Inspired me to write my own seven-book trilogy.... It's one of my favorite fantasy series ." --George R. R. Martin, New York Times -bestselling author " Groundbreaking ....

New York Times -bestselling Tad Williams' landmark epic fantasy saga of Osten Ard begins an exciting new cycle "One of my favorite fantasy series." --George R. R.

And with his death, the Storm King, the undead ruler of the elf-like Sithi, seizes the chance to regain his lost realm through a pact with the newly ascended king. Knowing the consequences of this bargain, the king's younger brother joins with a small, scattered group of scholars, the League of the Scroll, to confront the true danger threatening Osten Ard. Simon, a kitchen boy from the royal castle unknowingly apprenticed to a member of this League, will be sent on a quest that offers the only hope of salvation, a deadly riddle concerning long-lost swords of power. Compelled by fate and perilous magics, he must leave the only home he's ever known and face enemies more terrifying than Osten Ard has ever seen, even as the land itself begins to die.
