Book Description
================
The first book of the triumphant and epic four-part conclusion to the Shannara series, from one of the all-time masters
of fantasy.
Across the Four Lands, peace has reigned for generations. But now, in the far north, an unknown enemy is massing. More
troubling than the carnage is the strange and wondrous power wielded by the attackers—a breed of magic unfamiliar even
to the Druid order. Fearing the worst, the High Druid dispatches a diplomatic party under the protection of the order’s
sworn guardian, Dar Leah, to confront the mysterious, encroaching force and discover its purpose.
But another crucial journey is being undertaken. Exiled onetime High Druid Drisker Arc has been living in quiet
seclusion, far from the politics and power struggles of his former life, until two brutal attacks by would-be assassins
force him to seek out an infamous murder-for-hire guild—and find the hidden enemy who has marked him for death.
At his side is Tarsha Kaynin, a young woman gifted with the wishsong and eager to be schooled in its formidable power by
a master. She, too, is pursuing a mission: to locate her wayward brother, whose own magic has driven him to deadly
madness and kindled his rage for vengeance . . . against his sister.
In their darkest hours, facing dangerous adversaries, the lives and quests of Dar Leah, Drisker Arc, and Tarsha Kaynin
will be inextricably drawn together. And the challenges each confronts will have resounding consequences for the future
of the Four Lands.
