About the Book
Will and Evanlyn are captives in the frozen northern kingdom of Skandia while Halt, in defiance of the king's orders, travels to find his apprentice; both storylines converge on a cold landscape of slavery, warmweed addiction, and survival. A notably darker entry in the series, with Will's addiction to warmweed—a narcotic that dulls misery—handled with care.
