And out of the mayhem the Lords will arise! a country where magic is dying out. A country at war with itself. A country where the prophecies of the Book of the World have started to come true. a young foreigner, drawn irresistibly to the war in Trace. A man who has rejected religion, yet appears to be possessed by one of the six Lords Elemental. Bligh thinks he's going mad, but if he is then it's a madness shared by others...
I can only imagine that hardcore fans of this author would give this book 5 stars. There was nothing refreshing in this book, but it wasn't poorly written, and there weren't gigantic plot holes. So it had that going it, anyway.
