In the tone of The Hobbit, comes the first thrilling story in an
epic fantasy adventure, from a major new voice. Fourteen-year-old
Oland Born lives in dark times, in a world ruled by evil tyrant,
Vilius Ren. Vilius and his fearsome, bloodthirsty army have wrecked
the prosperous kingdom of Decresian, once ruled by good King Micah.
Oland himself has been kept as Vilius's servant in grim Castle
Derrington, and he knows little about his past - or why Vilius
keeps such a sharp, close eye on him. One night, Oland finds a
letter addressed to him, from the long-dead king. No sooner has he
read the message than a mysterious stranger tries to kidnap him.
Oland runs, the dead king's warning ringing in his ears... If Oland
is to live he must restore the shattered kingdom. This is his
quest. This is his curse. Let the trials of Oland Born begin. . .
The setting is a hugely atmospheric fantasy world of medieval
castles, Romanesque games arenas, supernatural forests and harsh
seas. Terrifying hybrid creatures and monsters abound - and Oland's
greatest ally is a girl called Delphi who has dark secrets of her
own.
