From the Back Cover

For twenty years, the once proud lands of Eriador have lain, conquered and suffering, under the despotic and demonic power of the evil Wizard-King Greensparrow and his legions of monstrous cyclops soldiers. The dwarves and Fairborn elves are slaves; humans fare little better.

Arena fighter Luthien Bedwyr is too young and privileged to understand Greensparrow's oppression. Then one night he seeks justice for a friend's murder, only to find himself a fugitive, pursued by Greensparrow's thugs.

It is a flight that will turn into grand adventure, a magical odyssey full of sorcery and danger as he embarks upon a quest to free the masses from the excesses of Greensparrow's henchmen, thereby becoming a legendary hero...

"Bob Salvatore is a writer to watch"
