Synopsis
Frost is a warrior and witch who has lost the magical powers she once held, leaving her with little more than her sword and her own wits. She is charged with carrying the Book of the Last Battle to the practitioners of good magic, a task that drags her into an apocalyptic war between the forces of good and evil. On the road she makes powerful enemies and finds herself in ever deeper trouble, while she tries to reclaim her lost abilities before the war overtakes the world she is trying to protect.
