From the Back Cover
Alaric, the minstrel, seemingly fated to wander forever in search of his lost family and heritage, goes beyond being a typical fantasy hero, and attains the status of a figure from legend. His gift is to be able to transport himself from one place to another in the blink of an eye; but in a world where magic is viewed with suspicion it is a gift which, once exercised, may place him in mortal danger.
Alaric has come to the valley of the Red Lord. Here he discovers a horror that is drawing the very life and soul from the land. Entrapped in the Red Lord’s castle, Alaric uses his magical powers to escape, and flees to the safety of the far north, where he is adopted by a nomadic tribe.
But Alaric is unable to forget the terror he has left behind. He 'must' return and confront the evil which is slowly poisoning the valley.
“Sheer delight; from the first page to the last”
MARION BRADLEY, author of 'The Mists of Avalon' and co-author of 'Black Trillium'

But he was born with a power that let him travel anywhere he'd ever been -- or could see -- with a mere thought. It was harmless magic, but to the people of the South it made Alaric that most dreaded of beings -- a witch. So he became a voluntary exile, journeying the lands, playing for his meals, bringing happiness to high- and lowborn alike. Until he came to the valley of the Red Lord. In the Red Lord's castle, Alaric discovered a horror that was stealing the life and soul from the land. Using his power to flee this valley of death for the safety of the far north, he was adopted by the nomad tribes as one of their own, and was challenged by their own great witch to learn the extent of his magic. Yet Alaric couldn't forget the terror he had left behind. One day he knew he'd have to challenge the evil that waited in the Red Lord's realm. . ."; 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall.
