Sixteen years ago the sorcerer Calvas and his werewolf hordes defeated the Western Realms. Anreon of Agialon, a knight, never meant to help the enemy, but his actions secured Calvas's victory, and ever since he has been called the Bringer of Curses. His son Tarean was born during that decisive battle and has grown up under the shadow of the name. Determined to restore his family's honour, Tarean sets out to call Calvas to account. He carries the magic sword Esdurial and is joined by a will-o'-the-wisp, an albino companion and a werebear. Their journey leads across the land, and it will change the world as they know it.
