At last - the epic fantasy series inspired by the work of illustrator Frank Frazetta returns! The war isn't going well for the kingdom of Firekeep and their allied forces of the south. One after another, cities are falling to the hordes of subhuman thralls unleashed by the Ice Realms. Led by the resurrected prince who now calls himself Kadav'r and wields the dark powers of the pits, no mortal army is able to stand against them. It isn't all gloom and doom, though - Larn finally makes it back to his home village, where he discovers that he's being celebrated as a great hero, and that's a good thing... right?
