The fear of Tyrrane and their Anger Under the Mountain has gone on long enough, and King Keane of Greenshade has finally decided to end it—personally. Until he talks with his wife the queen, whereupon he decides to send warrior/sorceress Sarah to end it for him.

On the advice of a troll Seer and a dead god, Sarah plunges ahead into adventure and war, even though the last time she faced the dark queen of Tyrrane she was forced to run, broken and bloody.

This time things will be different, and while this proves to be true, the results are not what Sarah or Keane wanted. Full scale war embroils every corner of the map, the crown cannot keep their own out of danger, and the Anger is whispering in everyone’s ears.

The world was so much easier when Keane and Sarah were just mercenaries.
