Fire Sea

Více o knize

Long ago, powerful wizards divided a world into four realms—sky, stone, fire, and sea—before disappearing. Their magical descendants became isolated in their realms, gradually forgetting one another. Only a few survivors of the labyrinth remember the four separate realms, accessible through the central Death Gate. In Fire Sea, Haplo the Patryn is tasked with journeying through the Death Gate to each realm. He rides a tide of molten lava into Abarrach, the Realm of Stone, accompanied by Alfred, a Sartan believed to be the last of his kind. Upon discovering the deserted city of Safe Harbor, they confront a lost tribe of Sartan practicing forbidden magic. As civil war erupts, Abarrach's rulers desperately seek the Death Gate and its secrets. They are haunted by a prophecy that foretells doom for their world, threatening both the living and the dead. This series of seven novels, each a stand-alone story, triumphs in epic fantasy, exploring the realms through vivid characters grappling with chaos and isolation. The final three volumes depict a struggle for redemption as magicians and warriors unite in a climactic battle for the reunification of their fractured universe. Fire Sea, the third volume, stands out as a magnificent tale in its own right.
