Shadow in the Flame

Possessing an awesome power, she is only beginning to understand, Molly must summon the devastating yet darkly magic of the Lia Fail on a fateful mission to save the Harrow, and protect the future from the forces of evil. Once again Fairfax, wizard of the Order of the Edainar, must seek the help of all the great races.

Many battles are fought, while an evil presence lurks quietly in the Drueger, slithering within the flames of the devil tower Urth' Goroth. It is the Lor Shys and soon she will face the Huntress, leader of the Tar Shor or Guild of Witches, a Guild long since banished from Katzhu Pu.

Meanwhile, the great Erol Carrick musters the armies of man, dwarf, feline, and elf in an effort to cleanse the Harrow of the worm brood. His efforts provide Molly and those who journey with her the time to travel to the Drueger to face the evil master. But soon she and the others walk blindly into a trap, as unexpected enemies lay in wait ahead.

As the ravening forces of darkness encroach on every side and the time of a great confrontation draws near, those chosen to defend the world must draw their battle lines and prepare to fight with, and for, their lives. There is no certainty of success.  If they fail, the world collapses.

Shadow in the Flame continues a complex and inspiring story that takes place in a magical world. It is the first book in a most delightfully imaginative series in recent memory, with compelling characters and the scope of a thrilling, rich, and captivating world.
