  <default-description>Abarrach, the Realm of stone. Here, on a barren  world of underground caverns built around a core of  molten lava, the lesser races -- humans, elves,  and dwarves -- seem to have all died off. Here, too,  what may well be the last remnants of the once  powerful Sartan still struggle to survive. For Haplo  and Alfred -- enemies by heritage, traveling  companions by necessity -- Abarrach may reveal more than  either dares to discover about the history of  Sartan... and the future of all their descendants.</default-description>

The setting is also very interesting as the world of Abbarach is a lethal land of caves, lava rivers and undead.<br/><br/>I'm close to the end of this book and it has kept me enthralled from the ...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/27327616">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Probably the best of the 7, mainly because of it's torturous story and the connection between Haplo and Alfred. After trying to figure out what all is going on in the first 2 books, this starts tying the pieces together while having a scary independent story too]]></body>
