A dwarf apart. Barlo knows he no longer fits in among the people of Dwarvenhome. His secret past looms over him.
He longs for a chance to set the heavy burden aside. To feel like himself again. A secret journey to make a new home among the elves seems like the only way. And if he happens to stumble into an adventure with his best friend Iarion once he gets there, even better.
But a force more powerful than Barlo also struggles to find a new life.
And the end of the dwarf’s journey lies much farther than the Light Elves’ wood.
The ongoing saga of Barlo and Iarion continues to lead to strange, new places, fraught with darkness and danger, in this fifth novel in the World of Lasniniar epic fantasy series by award-winning author, Jacquelyn Smith.
Jacquelyn Smith is a Canadian author from the outskirts of Toronto, Ontario, where apologies are a regular part of most social interactions, and the second ‘T’ in ‘Toronto’ is definitely silent. (Sorry.)
Jacquelyn originally published several of the earlier titles in the Kira Brightwell series under the pen name Kat Irwin before she finally decided to kill Kat off in an effort to eliminate the many awkward questions about having a second identity.
When spending time in the real world, Jacquelyn lives with her husband Mark, and their feline owner Xena, who is definitely a warrior princess.
