Book Description
A ranger's duty. The rotten heart of a king. Rebellion spilled from the blood of family. In Book 4 of the King's Ranger series, Rew and his companions find themselves transported across the kingdom and flung into the teeth of waiting danger. There's no time to rest as they go from one deadly circumstance to another. It's a trap, but are they the trap's bait or its jaws? As the companions continue their quest against the king and the princes of Vaeldon, they discover they're the masters of horrific power. Their strength rivals that of the greatest swordsmen and spellcasters in the kingdom's history, but when they use that strength, the cost is weighed in lives. The price of victory is high, and Rew and his friends carry the burden of that sorrow. Are the spoils of victory worth the tragic loss it takes to achieve them? Can Rew and his companions justify their crusade against the Mordens when the line separating them grows ever thin?

Only then can he proclaim himself High King of Kymru. But the Treasures were hidden long ago. In order to save Kymru, Gwydion the Dreamer must locate a long-forgotten song and the clues it contains before Havgan does. Following the dictates of the song, he persuades Rhiannon, her daughter Gwenhwyvar, and his nephew Arthur to set out with him on the dangerous quest. Dogged by Havgan's soldiers, they must hurry to find the artifacts.

On a path that twists across the Eastern Territory, they fight toward the prison where Baron Fedgley is held. The party will face bandits, assassins, treacherous noblemen, spellcasters, and Rew's fellow rangers to get there. Raif and Cinda, desperate to recover their kidnapped father, will risk anything to find him.

Cinda, awakened to strange and dangerous necromantic magic, will have to control vast power she never expected. Confronted with the truth of his past, and terrible knowledge he cannot ignore, Rew will choose between hiding and saving his soul, or sacrificing it all to protect those he's come to love. Will the ranger's path take them into the wilderness and safety, or into the heart of the kingdom and an epic confrontation?
