The road to redemption begins with a single step but Talon has a long way to go. The Druidess leads her pitifully small warband to the Portal, a magic window that will save three months of travel, if only it were that simple.
As the Necromancer's maze of traps and forbidden magic draws closer, the monsters lurking in the dark corridors have every reason to worry. The shapeshifting warrior-wolf Ulfheodr are coming and their captain is in no mood to take prisoners.
Part 2 in a serial novel - this section consists of chapters 4-7 and is approximately 17,000 words in length. The expected release date for part three is 15th September 2013.
