"Dramatic illustrations draw the reader into the Tolkienesque world
of Ruin Mist, plunged into darkness after a Great War five hundred
years past. Blaming magic for their demise, the Kings of Men have
decreed that all things magical be destroyed. Yet despite their
efforts, the magical Dark Lord is slowly returning to power. Stanek
augments the beginning of this complex tale with illustrations that
are sure to attract fans of graphic novels and classic Tolkien
alike." -- VOYA - the leading magazine for YA librarians.
