Reviews
<p><em>Just like an arrow when it is drawn backward can’t know the target when it is launched, it still flies true. In the third book of the series, Devorah Fox hit a bull’s-eye. From his initial setback, our good king has flown true as well. Although not the same king who found himself in a cow pasture a while back, his epic fantasy comes to an exciting climax drawing on all that came before … and lies ahead</em>. — Mike Green</p>
<p><em>A father's job is never done, nor is a king's. And though King Bewilliam has fought to reclaim his throne, his struggles are just beginning. With no suitable heir, all his efforts and achievements are threatened in this fabulous high fantasy read. — </em>Samantha LaFantasie, author of the<em> Nepherium </em>series</p>
