Plot summary

[edit | edit source]

Shandril, who has risen from being a humble kitchen maid to being one of the most powerful magic users in the Realms, is now hunted by enemies who want to acquire her Spellfire ability. With her allies, Elminster, the Knights of Myth Drannor, and her lover Narn, she must face the dark magicians of Zhentarim and a group known as the Cult of the Dragon.

Reception

[edit | edit source]

One reviewer described it as "better than its predecessor, but not by much. Arguably stronger writing, more focus in the storytelling and the narrative doesn't drift as much."[1]
