Publisher's Synopsis
"It's time to grow up, Ulaeron. Don't get soft on me."Faced with sudden tragedy as a ruthless conspiracy is set into motion in the empire of Kingsbanesin, young Cadohaden Ulaeron leaves the confines of comfort and familiarity, embarking on a journey to the land of the Glen Dale, the same nation that led a brutal rebellion against his forefathers ages ago. Determined to honor both of his distinctly different parents, Cadohaden finds more than just new friendships and a place to call home. Lurking somewhere in the city walls, the promise of a purpose in life is waiting for him.Such promises aren't easily fulfilled, however, and Cadohaden isn't the only one to discover this. As the Summer Solstice arrives, a darkness sets its eyes upon the Glen Dale. And when evil approaches, it becomes harder to see the line between righteousness and wrath, between bravery and recklessness. Everyone will be tested as doom encroaches upon the barley fields.
