The atmosphere of this epic fantasy, the first of a duology, is as dark as its title, if not more so. Three hundred years after the magic disappeared from Noreela, the evidence all points to its return--and that the source of this new magic lies within farm boy Rafe Baburn. In response, a murderous Red Monk descends upon Rafe’s village, leaving Rafe an orphan and setting the boy adrift in a harsh world rife with newly awakened, sinister forces.
