About the Book
With the bold adventure and brilliant magic that have made him one of
fantasy's bestselling authors, R. A. Salvatore continues the epic
series that began with Echoes of the Fourth Magic. Join him for a
spellbinding tale of darkness, fantasia, and unbridled imagination.
Though
many perished in the dark times past, a precious few survivors escaped,
fleeing certain doom to find a dazzling, dangerous land of wonder. Here
wizards and witches inhabited forests spun from enchantment and towers
of celestial beauty. But in this place of promised safety, the Black

dominate the world.

the young witch sensed a sudden call; strange, terrifying powers
tingled within her body. Now Rhiannon had to summon these new, untested
abilities to stop the ancient warlock, an enemy who had long since
mastered the forces of the universe and bent them to his diabolical
will...
