Synopsis

Nineteen-year-old Cordwin finds himself lord of the land of Vorlik after his brother and sister-in-law are murdered. Their infant son is kidnapped. Rumor suggests the atrocities are the work of Sorcerers, members of a cruel race who want to bend humans to their will, but Cordwin finds this hard to believe. Sorcerers haven't been seen in Vorlik in centuries. Mad with grief, and desperate to find his nephew, Cordwin reluctantly agrees to his own coronation. At the ceremony, he is surprised by the appearance of the Wizard Briella, member of another ancient race that uses its power to protect the world. Briella has come to serve Cordwin and serve his people, for a prophesy warns that Vorlik will be the site of an awful war between Wizards and Sorcerers. Drawn to each other, yet kept apart by a terrifying vision, Cordwin and Briella face an ancient hatred that threatens to destroy them and the land they love.
