Apprentice Will and Ranger Halt are separated by the exigencies of war and diplomatic tasks. Halt, despite being very experienced and respected, doesn't seem to have much respect for diplomatic constraints. This, however, comes in handy when dealing with some arrogant, recalcitrant nobles. Especially since war is coming.
Will and his friend, apprentice knight Horace, head off with Ranger Gilan to perform some diplomatic errands as well. But what they find in the country of Celtica adds mystery on top of mystery, and growing danger.
A long-time enemy has been scheming and maneuvering, and now his trap is about to close on King Duncan and the kingdom of Araluen. Halt is separated from his apprentice at a crucial point in the defense of their country -- and their separation threatens to become permanent.
Does it need to be said? Book 3 is sitting next to my bed, ready to catch up with Will, the apprentice ranger. What's going to happen next?
