A new saga from the author of the legendary Drenai cycle! Centuries and centuries ago, King Connavar and his illegitimate son Bane died, defending the freedom of their people from the powerful Empire. The Sidhi disappeared into oblivion a long time ago, and the rigants lost their independence, their faith in the ancient gods, and even their ancient language... Only in the north are the clans of the mountaineers still able to resist the new overlords. Only in the inaccessible mountains of Druach is Sidhe magic still alive, giving strength to the rebel leader - the hero nicknamed Raven Heart. However, a new army of conquerors is moving from the south to Druach, all the more powerful because it is led by an opponent equal to the Heart of the Raven - a mighty knight called Stormrider...
