Knighted for bravery in a battle Falorn only half-remembers, his newfound
noble status is the only thing that saves Falorn's life when he's
captured by a powerful archbishop. But that nobility also forces him on a doomed
quest into the land of the Immortal King, where savage armies compete with
powerful wizards to try to take away the magical artifact that propelled Falorn
into this mess in the first place. In a web of betrayals and counterbetrayals,
he finds himself more and more caught in love triangle between the woman who he
loves but who has twice abandoned him, and the woman who seems to love him
- but who he can never fully trust. Wizards, monsters, pirates, murderous
cults and rogue professors all have a role to play in this fast-paced sequel to
The Green Lion. But the ultimate role will be played by the sorceress in
whose thorns Falorn is caught, and who set in motion the events that threaten to
consume him - along with both of the women who love and betray
him.
