JANNY WURTS

Arithon, Master of Shadow, has mastered the maze and achieved self-redemption. Now, he's the guest of the formidable Sorcerer, Davien the Betrayer, a recluse, and a peril in his own right. No faction knows how that influence will try Arithon's recovered mage power, or the new depths that have wakened a latent, rogue talent for prescience.

The curse that hangs over the Master of Shadow, Arithon, and Lord of Light, Lysaer, is drawing the two closer towards direct conflict. If they do, one is sure to perish and the Mistwraith will regain its evil power over their world.

The penultimate instalment of the 'Alliance of Light'.
