The kingdom of Fyorlund is in turmoil, its noble traditions corrupted by the insidious influence of Dan-Tor, the King's smooth-tongued advisor. As political intrigue tears the realm apart, few suspect that Dan-Tor's true nature runs far deeper—and darker—than mere ambition.
When Hawklan arrives in this troubled land, he finds himself drawn into a deadly game where allies and enemies wear the same faces, and the very foundations of the kingdom are under assault. With Isloman at his side and Gavor's wisdom to guide him, Hawklan must navigate treacherous waters while his own powers continue to awaken.
But as Dan-Tor's true identity as one of the ancient Uhriel begins to emerge, Hawklan realizes that Fyorlund's fate is tied to a conflict that spans ages. In this battle between corruption and hope, between ancient darkness and emerging light, the choices made here will echo across all the lands.
Roger Taylor (1938-2023) was the acclaimed author of the epic five-book fantasy series, the Chronicles of Hawklan and the Word of Hawklan novels. Praised by readers as "subtly subversive," his work delved deep into the complexities of good and evil, often exploring the challenging idea that one must embrace their own darkness to protect the vulnerable.
His worlds, and the profound questions they pose, continue to captivate and resonate with readers around the globe.View all by Roger Taylor
