Possessed mages are closing in on the capital of Serin, but then Mason discovers the Master has managed to brand a few ogres too, and as everyone is quick to tell him, this is bad news. Very bad.

If the Master enslaves the ogres … this war is over before it even begins.

So, Mason, his women, and the half-ogre Haragh must travel to Jagruel, the ogre territory, and thwart the Master’s plan of increasing his army.

The only problem with their plan is that ogres are more inclined to eat Mason than talk to him.
