Back Cover Text: Between earth and sky!
The name Guerrand DiThon has been cursed by his family since the day
he disappeared. When a mysterious plague strikes their beleaguered
village, Guerrand's name is invoked again--as the cause of the disaster.
Bram DiThon, Guerrand's nephew, is more like his uncle than the family
would care to admit. A skilled herbalist, Bram has unknowingly turned
his skills toward magic. It is to Bram the villagers turn when the
plague changes their eyes to onyx, their limbs to snakes, and their flesh
to stone.
Unable to stop the unexplainable deaths, Bram sets out to find his
missing uncle. He learns that Guerrand is the High Defender of Bastion,
the last stronghold before the Lost Citadel. But in finding him,
Bram has unwittingly given an evil mage--once Guerrand's friend, now his
archenemy--the key to destroy the three orders of sorcery.
Review:
My satisfaction from Night of the Eye continues in this book. It's
amazing how powerful Lyim got in such a short time. I liked the
introduction of Bram into the trilogy. Quite interesting is Guerrand's
assistance from an unexpected but powerful source. Who? Read the book.
Rating: 8/10.
