Synopsis

Jon is a young man. He lives a simple life. A quiet life. A good life. Though the death of his mother and the loss of his father weighs heavy and creates in him a painful yearning.

Into this sleepy existence steps a mysterious stranger, a lone, hooded figure in a forest clearing who claims to be Jon's long lost uncle. This chance encounter - if indeed it is chance - has unforeseen consequences. Unforeseen to Jon that is; for the hooded figure is a seer - one of eight guardians of the mysterious Council of the Sight, bestowed with the magical powers. Yet the seers' abilities are dimmed. One of their kind - Ebon Lodestone -has entrapped his fellow rulers in Seers' Tower, rendering all powerless to prevent Ebon's malevolent will to absolute power.

All but Urim, Jon's shadowy new companion who has evaded Ebon's clutches and is hot on his trail. Together Jon, Urim and an unlikely company of elves, dwarves, men - and the redoubtable Anna - embark on a remarkable journey across strange lands in even stranger times.

Fierce clashes with embittered enemies lie ahead, for a darkness has spread across the land. Will this ragtag band of brothers prevail in their endeavour to defeat the rogue seer? Or will the dark forces converging in Ebon's wake prove too strong for their brave union?

With all the epic scope and imaginative breath of Tolkien, this trailblazing fantasy is a classic tale of the oldest battle of all: that between good and evil.
