The international bestselling series with over 5 million copies sold in

For years, the Kingdom of Araluen has prospered, with the evil lord
Morgarath safely behind the impassable mountains. For years, its people
have felt secure. But the scheming hand of the dark lord has not been
idle. . . . On a special mission for the rangers, Will and his friend
Horace, an apprentice knight, travel to a neighboring village and
discover the unsettling truth: all the villagers have either been slain
or captured. Could it be that Morgarath has finally devised a plan to
bring his legions over the supposedly insurmountable pass? If so, the
king's army is in imminent danger of being crushed in a fierce ambush.
And Will and Horace are the only ones who can save them.

Sword in the Stone, Christopher Paolini's Eragon series, and George R.
R. Martin's Game of Thrones/A Song of Ice and Fire series.
