But Asbjorn of Brekka did not choose this course for himself, nor does he understand why it has been thrust upon him. Can one young Northerner escape the wrath of a foe that has foreseen its own end at his hands, or will he be consumed by the unyielding evil that rises from the south, the dreaded master of the black citadel, Xiphactinas?
