All is revealed in the battle to keep the Kelpies from fully
reuniting and regaining control.
The Return of the Fury is part one of a series of stories about
eight individuals who meet each other on what almost seems to be a
predestined journey to discover the source of an ominous storm that
has turned villagers from the diverse parts of their world to
stone. The story begins with a faerie and a forest creature, from
cultures that had previously been at war with one another for
centuries, teaming up. Along the way they meet and are joined in
their travel by a mountain princess and her sorcerer, a princess of
the sea sprites and an enchantress. The last two members, a
pathfinder and a guardian of the Ice Kingdom, complete the team.
Their adventure ultimately leads them to a confrontation with a
powerful sorcerer who was banished and imprisoned centuries ago,
and is on the verge of escape. But this is just the beginning. The
characters bring very different backgrounds and complicated
histories of their respective peoples to their mutual quest. As
they travel from a forest, to a mountain castle, under the sea, to
a swamp, and a snow-covered world in the far north, they have to
battle creatures who have been sent to stop them from completing a
task they do not yet understand. The journey reveals bits and
pieces of their respective histories that help them to begin to
understand that their destinies are bound together to complete this
task, even though they do not yet know how or why. On their
travels, they find the notions about each of their cultures which
they had learned from birth might not be completely true. They also
find that they must rely on each other for protection and for ideas
about how to escape from one peril after another.
The third installment of The Quest of Eight unravels some of the
history leading up to books one and two, and which is illuminated
in the rest of the saga. The Flight of the Wedgamaroon tells the
story of two proteges gone bad and the power of the pendant of the
Enchantress.

edition. It features new villains and new heroes in a world turned
up-side-down and inside-out. It takes up two thousand years after

stories about eight individuals who are brought together once more
by events beyond their control. The story begins with the discovery
of the poisoning of a pristine arctic bay, and takes the heroes
into the depths of the earth. The characters discover new pieces to
the puzzle of a journey they thought had already ended. This facet
of their journey raises more questions than it answers. but it also
brings them closer to one another, building bonds that will be
necessary to see them through the challenges ahead.
