A Shadow on The Land
| Krystine Kercher
| In the far north of Altesse, amid giants’ ruins and simmering volcanos, a shadow lies over the imperiled kingdom of Astarkand.
Carrying ancient relics, a blue-cloaked dragon knight has arrived in Hearthing. The minstrels give him a bigger swagger than he knows he deserves. The crown prince is furiously jealous of his fame and respect. The king secretly plots to bring him down while welcoming him at court. Does the dragon knight, Bjorn Horsa have what it takes to outwit the king, or did he just get lucky with the dragon?
Wary of the mysterious tenders of lake and stream, terrified of the immortal prince Vodan’s plagues and storms, and alienated from the Dreamsender by their efforts to appease Vodan, Kandians seek a deliverer. A five hundred year-old prophecy brought Bjorn Horsa north over steep, mountain passes to confront Vodan. Before he can be anyone's deliverer, he must first take up the mantle of Eiathan's Heir, and ascend the throne of Astarkand.
Just one little problem: Olaf is king. Has he ever got it in for one Bjorn Horsa...
