Angus Watson Knihy

Jižním krajům Británie vládne železnou rukou král Zagar. V okolní hradištích se neshodnou na tom, zda větší hrůzu vzbuzují královy divoké oddíly bojovníku, nebo tajemná a krvavá magie jeho druidů. Život je krátký, plný bídy a násilí. Dug Tuleňář je žoldák. Nemá domov, rodinu, přátele ani peníze. Má jen válečné kladivo a věčnou smůlu. Chtěl nabídnou služby králi, ale uvízl v táboře nepřátel. Být na špatné straně se v bitvě nevyplácí, a když obávané Zagarovy lučištnice zasadí první ránu, ví, co má dělat – utíkat o život. Oddílu elitních lučištnic velí Lowa. Možná nedovedou rozseknout nepřítele od hlavy až do půl těla, ale na koni a s lukem nemají sobě rovné. Jsou až příliš dobré, a král nemá rád konkurenci. Lowa zůstane osamělá, pronásledovaná, a odhodlaná se pomstít. Od této chvíle není nikdo v bezpečí. Louky kolem Maidunského hradu jsou nasáklé krví a dnešek je dobrý den pro smrt. Legendou se nikdo nenarodí. Legendou se musí stát.
