From the Back Cover
Alaric, the minstrel, seemingly fated to wander forever in search of his lost family and heritage, goes beyond being a typical fantasy hero, and attains the status of a figure from legend. His gift is to be able to transport himself from one place to another in the blink of an eye; but in a world where magic is viewed with suspicion it is a gift which, once exercised, may place him in mortal danger.
Alaric has come to the valley of the Red Lord. Here he discovers a horror that is drawing the very life and soul from the land. Entrapped in the Red Lord’s castle, Alaric uses his magical powers to escape, and flees to the safety of the far north, where he is adopted by a nomadic tribe.
But Alaric is unable to forget the terror he has left behind. He 'must' return and confront the evil which is slowly poisoning the valley.
“Sheer delight; from the first page to the last”
