Synopsis
Gord learns that his role in the fate of his world is crucial, even though he knows little of his own heritage. In this sequel to Sea of Death he reunites with his friends Gellor, Chert and Curley Greenleaf and leads them into a deadly otherworldly realm. Their goal is to defeat an inhuman beast that seeks to unleash Ultimate Evil. Gord also seeks revenge on the man who murdered his parents, and the search for the truth about his origins drives him on.
