Drum Into Silence

Three sorcerers plot separately to reach the Empty Place and defeat the Hero–and each other. Other great magicians do what they can to protect the Hero, and the whole world with him.

Breith follows the white bird, knowing that she is really his transformed love, Cymel. The beautiful sorceress Hudoleth steals youth and beauty from the young women around her to keep the Emperor's attention. The Shaman lies hidden in the Earth near the Empty Place. Tensions of love, of war, of power and of magic all mount with the beating of the drums.
