Synopsis

Confusion reigns in both Tantel and Periton as King Garneth of Tantel prepares for war. But a new upheaval looms when foreigners known as the Exiles are unmasked. Settled covertly within easy reach of both kingdoms, their numbers include powerful mages hiding momentous secrets.

Caught up in the turmoil, Dalthinir, Inga, and Trisanna seek answers, not least to Dalthinir’s most pressing question: what has become of Kylen?

Underlying it all is a more alarming concern. Have dragons found new ways to interfere with humankind, in defiance of the prohibition?

About this title

About the Author

Allan Packer writes epic fantasy. The six novels of The Stone Cycle series are his first published fiction. Allan grew up surrounded by books and became an avid reader during his childhood. In his university years fantasy displaced science fiction as his favorite genre, thanks primarily to J. R. R. Tolkien. He later shared this love with his four children by reading The Lord of the Rings to them aloud - a three-month marathon he completed twice during their formative years. Born in Australia, Allan has lived and worked on three continents, and spent one quarter of his working years abroad. Having worked as an IT professional throughout his career, he was first published as a technical author. Today he lives with his wife in Adelaide, South Australia, at the heart of a growing and geographically distributed extended family. Allan is currently working on the final installment in his series The Ruptured Kingdom.
