Different classes enjoy different qualities of magic; from meagre charms for the destitute to grand conjurations impossible to distinguish from reality for the rich. But the most skilful and expensive spells are kept by the authorities and used to control the entire population. Reeth Caldason is among the last of his kind. His people the Qalochians a race of natural warriors were brutally massacred decades ago.

Under the floating Palace of the mad Prince of Bhealfa he comes across other outlaws and is drawn into the Resistance movement assisting those who have suffered under the dictatorships of the two massive empires. Reeth is promised that in return for his help the underground society will help him find a cure for his affliction.

Edges of covers have superficial wear. Spine has minimal reading creases. . Pages are reasonably tanned. ABOUT THIS BOOK: From the author of the internationally accalaimed Orcs series comes a powerful new epic fantasy to rival the work of Raymond E. Feist and David Gemmell.

His search has brought him to the island state of Bhealfa ruled by a despot and trapped between two powerful rival empires. Here after decades of carefully avoiding all personal attachments he finds himself entangled with a Resistance movement intent on founding a utopia free from tyranny. The paladin clans a fearsome order of mercenary knights who provide government security are determined to crush the growing rebellion. Devlor Bastorran the cruel and possibly mad heir apparent to the clan leadership is plotting a grotesque revenge against Caldason having been bested by him in a humiliating and very public swordfight. But Caldason has other problems to contend with. The rebels have decided on the location of their new state - a remote island. Before it can be occupied a large quantity of gold must be delivered to its legal owner. Caldason is the natural choice to head this sensitive mission - but he soon discovers that a powerful new enemy covets both the gold and the island threatening to destroy the whole fragile venture before it's even underway.
