The author of the beloved The Crown of Eden creates a new, enchanting, mythical world full of unforgettable characters. On opposite sides of the Seven Kingdoms, Davian, a talented sculptor, and the princess Avelessa weave their separate tales of loss.
Another excellent book by Thomas Williams. Yes, it is a little predictable, but it is still so exciting to find out how we are going to get there!
Good Book!

This was my first time reading Thomas Williams' work - and it will not be the last! I had trouble putting it down, but also didn't want to hurry through it! I found the book incredibly satisfying - and I highly recommend it!
Another fascinating medieval story by Tom Williams!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This story, a prequel to The Crown of Eden, is set in Williams' seven kingdoms, and is a marvelous addition to the series, which also includes The Devil's Mouth. All of them are mesmerizing novels which you will find difficult to put down. "Just a few more pages," I told myself again and again, "and I'll get up and do those chores that are calling for me." You may find parallels to quandaries you have faced in your life as you read the story of a young sculptor whose bitter experience brings him to shun the beauty and love of any woman, a princess whose royal existence is tragically spoiled, and the ruin of a good man by the multiplied ill effects of an unchecked destructive force within himself. The story is rich with lessons for life, yet not in a way that detracts from the story. This is highly recommended reading - and watch for Tom Williams' upcoming book about C. S. Lewis' Narnia!
