While Amberdrake builds up Zhaneel's self-esteem, Skandranon heals, and Urtho loses more territory. While Skandranon recuperates from wounds received in yet another heroic mission, young Zhaneel-a slender, clever, agile gryphon despised by some of Urtho's generals for her lack of sheer bulk and strength-develops new tactics against Ma'ar's airborne makaar slaves. Urtho has created numerous races, most importantly the gryphons, chief among whom is the black-dyed mage, Skandranon other leading characters include Winterhart, an emotionally repressed human Healer, and Amberdrake the kestra'chern-the latter something like a combined masseur, sex counselor, and psychotherapist. Here, the good archmage Urtho and his armies are locked in mortal combat with the evil Ma'ar. Prequel to Lackey's various fantasy series, chronologically set about a millennium before the founding of Valdemar.
