Description
This fascinating fantasy reveals deeper human truths, about the power to believe in oneself, and how might isn’t always right.
Twenty years ago, a king lost his kingdom, his family and himself. An infant girl was left in the care of the Wizard, Horos. A forlorn little boy watched his family float away from him on a sea of ice. A brave dwarf was treacherously killed. Wicked Wizard Morf was exiled by The Guardians for cheating in a test of power. A maimed witch grew bigger and bigger, nursing her hatred and her fear of the one axe that could hurt her.
Now, the stage is again set for the most primeval of battles-between the forces of good and evil. Will Horos and Morf ever become friends again?
Wizard, Orphan, King’s child, Dwarf Can they match the power of Morf?
