Lorace and the last defenders of the light embark on a voyage to slay the Devourer in his lair. It is a journey of discovery and desperation that takes them from the safety of Halversome to Ousenar, across the Vestral Sea.

The blight of undeath spreads over the continent, warping and twisting all life into mindless horrors, but to what purpose?

They must wage a pitched battle with the blight itself to reach their goal, and time is running out. Tendrils of undeath have almost reached Vorallon's core. When the living spirit of the world is destroyed, the God of Undeath will claim the universe as his own.

Lorace must push himself beyond all limits if he is to save what precious life remains.

About the Author

Thomas Cardin was born in California in 1963, the youngest of four children. His father exposed him to the works of Edgar Rice Burroughs by reading to him at a young age. His father also woke him in the night to watch Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon. When Thomas was old enough to read on his own, his father revealed to him a closet full of books, all adventure and science fiction. Thomas pursued a career in art. His interest in science drew him toward computers and he became an early computer graphic artist in the 1980's. Today he is a veteran graphic artist who specializes in 3D modelling and motion graphics...but that is his day job. Thomas married in 1989 to his wife, Cathy, and became father to her young son, Ralph. In 1991 his son, Roger, was born. In 2010, Thomas began writing.
