The gleaming object I held cupped in my hand was a strange find. It was a ball, a small globe of crystal. Within it was a tiny image - the image of a gryphon, the beast that was my own House symbol...I held it in the palm of my hand that I might study the gryphon closely. Now I could see that there were small flecks of crimson in the head to match the eyes. And those flecks sparkled, almost as if they had a life of their own. A witch World novel that tells the story of Kerovan, half-human, half-something else, who sought his rightful heritage to the throne of Ulm at a time when strange sea invaders were shattering the old kingdoms and equally enigmatic manifestations of the Old Ones were coming again to interfere with humanity.

It is 200 years after the destruction when Fors sets off to explore the empty lands to the north. He is a member of a clan which concerns itself with recapturing the knowledge and skills of their ancestors. By adding to that knowledge, Fors hopes to win a place as one of the leaders of his clan. A robust story with serious themes.
