Synopsis

"Years have passed since the great miracle atop Mount Aida—a miracle known as the Covenant of Avelyn. Corona is a different place. Avelyn is about to be elevated to sainthood by the very church that once proclaimed him a heretic. And King Danube has asked Jilseponie Wyndon—the outlaw hero of the Demon War—to become his queen.

Jilseponie can never love any man as completely as she did the Ranger Elbryan, the father of the child she lost. But she cannot deny that she has feelings for the wise and kindly king.

Yet danger looms. For the child that she lost never died--as she believes—but was stolen away by the queen of the elves. Raised in secret by the queen, he has grown to be a headstrong boy who shows every promise of being as skilled in the arts of combat as his father before him and as powerful with the gemstone magic as his mother.

They call him Aydrian.

Aydrian: a boy raised to be a weapon. A boy on a collision course with destiny."

Goodreads review by Austin

The state of this book is fantastic and holds up in quality though it feel much like how I felt with the first book of the first saga that felt like a lot of obvious build-up for a trilogy. This had a lot more court/emotional tension and lacked a decent amount of combat that was typical to before (e......more

Goodreads review by Robert

I would give this closer to 4.5 stars as it exceeded my expectations. I already kind of had an idea about the conclusion, due to having the rest of the series in my library but was not expecting that Mr. Salvatore would pull it off as interesting as it became. I’m really glad I continues this series......more
