Synopsis
This second volume picks up the ongoing story in a tunnel leading out of enchanted mountain realm of Eotunlandt. Fighting their way through subterranean dangers, Nibulus and his diminished retinue of `questers’ finally reach the open again, only to discover that their rivals the Thieves have mysteriously disappeared.
Meanwhile, Gapp and a sinisterly altered Methuselech continue towards Wrythe, the last settlement. They find the population strangely degenerated, under the influence of a local leader, in fact the evil being Scathur who has been hiding there for five hundred years, awaiting his moment of vengeance. Scathur recognises that inside Methuselech is the outcast soul of a rival necromancer, Mauglad, so imprisons them both till they manage to flee for their lives.
The rest of the original questers also turn up for a scary sojourn in Wrythe, before heading on to Melhus island with Scathur’s deathly henchmen in pursuit. During strange dreams, the wanderer Bolldhe learns he must use a strange sword he has found to kill the evil demigod Drauglir, once and for all. They all venture into Melhus (the Underworld), contesting with the hosts of the dead sent against them. There ensues a colossal battle, with thrills and spills and monumental destruction, before the questers achieve an unexpected victory –and most of them will return to Nordwas sadder but wiser.

Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Etat : Very Good: Light signs of wear. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Cover Art: Fred Gambino (illustrateur). 1st Edition. © 2008: 2nd in the 'Annals Of Lyndormyn' series of books. 1st edition, 1st printing:- Synopsis: Into the arctic wastelands of Melhus Island, to the subterranean fastness of the evil rawgr-lord Drauglir, a flame is brought - and at last the enigma buried deep and forgotten in Bolldhe's soul begins to thaw. Things are not so easy-going for Bolldhe the wanderer these days - not now that he has come to terms with the old priest Appa's claim that he is indeed the shaper of things to come. Exactly what sort of 'shapes' his chilblained hands might eventually create not even the gods themselves can say, however, for Bolldhe, now a killer, has begun to remember something of his past. Nonetheless, he at last seems committed to seeing this whole, inexplicable, terrifying mission through right to the end - even though his dreams, mind-woven by the shaman Wodeman, become ever more warped and savage, and force Bolldhe to wonder whether this same 'end' will be such a good thing for him. Meanwhile, Gapp the esquire and the mercenary Methuselech, in their desperate rush to head off Bolldhe before he enters Draughlir's fortress, finally arrive at Wrythe: home of the Ogghain-Yddiaw, the famed warriors who once helped in the legendary crusade against Draughlir five hundred years ago. Home too, however, for a darkness from the past that sours the very air, earth and sea of this benighted place, threatening to swallow them all. And, as Gapp starts wondering just what on earth is wrong with his silent companion these days, things for the young esquire are becoming increasingly weird - and downright nasty:- Review(s): "A sword in the shape of a flame, the fear of death with the black despair that accompanies it, and a descent into Hell itself. 'A Fire In The North' continues brilliantly where 'The Wanderer's Tale' left off. But it's an altogether darker and more violent affair now":- (original cost £16.99).
