In a land where spirits walk openly and influence the affairs of the living, he is the mage heir to the power of his grandmother, Bava K'aa, once the greatest sorceress of her age. Tris has a secret-one that might well determine the fate of Margolan and the Winter Kingdoms. They seek sanctuary and the chance to plot the overthrow of the Usurper, gaining unexpected helpers along the way. Tris flees with three friends: Soterius, captain of the guard Carroway, the court's master bard and Harrtuck, a member of the royal guard. But when his older half-brother Jared and Jared's dark mage kill the king and the rest of the royal family, seizing the throne, Tris's comfortable world shatters and he finds himself running for his life. Martris Drayke, second son of King Brice of Margolan, never coveted the crown.
