Synopsis
When a wandering swordmage, Geran Hulmaster, trained by the elves of Myth Drannor, returns to his boyhood home of Hulburg on the windswept shores of the Moonsea, he finds that corruption has taken hold, leaving his friends and family open to a devastating evil. The first Forgotten Realms novel to fully embrace the new elements of the fourth edition of the Dungeons & Dragons game, published alongside the Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide, and the opening of Richard Baker's Blades of the Moonsea trilogy, the first series written entirely in the new edition of the setting.
