Description

The Briar King has woken and, with the aid of monsters formerly found only in folk tales, is destroying the forest and the people who live on its bounty. Aspar White, the king's forester, has been assigned the impossible task of killing the fearsome newcomer, but will discover that nothing about the Briar King is as straightforward as expected.

Reviews

"'Rich, detailed, and always believable... Keyes excels most of all in his characters, who again and again demonstrate unexpected depths and surprising motivations' Locus 'Shames standard sword-and-sorcery efforts by playing for tragedy and real jeopardy' Time Out"
