Hyam is a likeable lad
who will make a fine farmer someday. But he carries a burden few can
fathom. As his mother slips toward death, she implores him to return to
Long Hall, where he spent five years as an apprentice. It was there that
Hyam's extraordinary capacity for mastering languages came to
light--and soon cast him into the shadows of suspicion. How could any
human learn the forbidden tongues with such ease? When Hyam dares to
seek out the Mistress of the Sorceries, her revelation tears his world
asunder.
He has no choice but to set out on the foreboding
path--which beckons him to either his destiny or his doom. An encounter
with an enchanting stranger reminds him that he is part hero and part
captive. As Hyam struggles to interpret the omens and symbols, he is
swept up by a great current of possibilities--and dangers.
