Ardan and Keegan have finally reached Castel, but frustration and anger are escalating between them as they butt heads over how to get to Tev Dar to find master Dwarf. Their situation is further strained when they meet the beautiful Catalina Xanas, captain of the airship, Nuberu. Hot on their heels are two bounty hunter dwarves named Bone and Clyde, who are determined to collect the hefty bounty on Ardan s head. To make matters worse they are about to cross paths with one of the Horde s nastiest fighting machines, The Hunters. Master Dwarf has crawled out of the rubble that was once the Temple of Ithra and is on his way to the island fortress of Arma to warn them about the Horde, find reinforcements and gather a search party to find Ardan. All the while, Bjorn Wulfston gets a surprise visit from a very battered and bruised friend, Jarl Rig, who barely escaped the attack on the Temple. Meanwhile, the Horde is recovering from the loss of a commander that was killed by Master Dwarf. Lopt, the enigmatic mastermind behind the Horde, is reassessing the weaknesses in his army as he begins the next upgrade for his soldiers. Lopt is determined to capture Ardan, but his plan for the domination of Tyr is beginning to fall into place as key events take hold. The walls are slowly closing in on Ardan as he is put in the Bull s Eye. - from Amzon
