A dread darkness is descending upon a great land called Midkemia — a powerful and malevolent race of monsters that has slipped through a hole in the dimensions. And two unlikely young heroes — a bastard heir denied his birthright and an irrepressible scoundrel with a penchant for thievery — must take up arms in the struggle to protect their besieged world...two friends chosen by Destiny to stand at the fore of the battle that is to come against the gargantuan reptile army of the terrible Emerald Queen.Author Biography: Raymond E.

Raymond E. Feist
Amerikansk forfatter som er blevet et af de største navne inden for fantasy. Han startede med at skrive romanen "Magician" som blev delt I to bind. Her lærte vi Pug, Tomas og alle de andre at kende. Siden har det udviklet sig til det som kaldes for "The Riftwar Saga", men serien fortsatte med en trilogi som foregik I Kelewan, den ene af verdenerne i den foregående serie. Og der er kommet "The Serpentwar Saga" som introducerer nye personer, samt "The Riftwar Legacy" som fylder nogle af hullerne mellem de tidligere bøger.
