The new king of Caledon, Rodrigo must draw on all the magical power of the Still as he confronts the aftermath of the war that placed the crown on his head as he struggles to consolidate his power and preserve the fragile peace.
With his kingdom still reeling from the war that set the crown of Caledon upon his head, Rodrigo must prove himself bold, decisive, and ruthless to keep this throne amid the terrifying invasion of the brutal Norlanders. Hounded and driven from castle to keep, Rodrigo must rally his scheming nobles and inspire his stricken realm. And the power of the Still - the ability to find the wisdom of his ancestors in pools of quiet water - is a frail weapon indeed against the Norland hordes.
Rodrigo can truly trust only one of his companions, his boyhood friend Rustin, who now bears the title "Guardian of the King's Person." As Rodrigo grows into his crown, Rustin must protect him from his own rash courage - as well as his many foes.
With his new kingdom still reeling from the war that set the crown of Caledon upon his head, Rodrigo must be stronger than ever to keep his position-and the fragile peace that surrounds him. Now he leads a contentious and divided army against powerful invaders, and only his expert use of magic of the Still can save them.
