Synopsis

The Prince of Avonar is in desperate straits. Betrayal devastates his plan to defeat the vile Lords of Zhev’Na without violence, and then a ruthless attack leaves his beloved wife near death.  As frustration and anger shake the fragile joining of the Prince’s body and soul, war engulfs his magical realm.  Sixteen-year-old Gerick, half-crazed with nightmare visions, pursued by past horror and his father’s wrath, flees beyond the boundaries of the known worlds. In a sunless realm of misshapen misfits, he discovers unlikely purpose and a devastating clue to the brokenness within himself.  With three worlds on the brink of ruin, the Prince and his son must look deep inside themselves to discover the truth of their enemies—a mystery bound up in Gerick’s emerging magic, a world newborn from chaos, and a whisper buried deep in Dar’Nethi legend.  "This is Gerick’s story and we quickly learn this is a different young man from the child that we saw in Guardians Of The Keep. The past does not lie quiet in Gerick, with his nightmares and fears of a corruption that could hurt those he loves. Plots and counterplots [will] intrigue the reader with surprise twists and turns. Fans of The Bridge Of D’Arnath will welcome this addition to the saga."—Colleen Cahill, SFRevu  "Intriguing…Well written . Gerick is one of Berg’s most interesting characters and probably my favorite."—Fantasy Literature  "Very good…read Son of Avonar and Guardians of the Keep first."—Booklist  Locus Bestseller May 2005

    Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society. 
    In literature the ambition is much narrower.  In order to be known, to be popular, you had to be published.  And for that people had to know you existed and your ideas worth reading.  Obviously for most of humanity’s time people couldn’t read and texts couldn’t be published in any great number. 
    In the 15th Century Gutenberg’s printing press began the revolution to address the second and by the 19th century had gathered pace with startling speed and mass distribution.  Education for the many was brought in to help people understand more of their world and, with new skills, how to have a better place within it.  Now, if the powers that owned the presses and means of distribution agreed an audience would now be able to avail themselves of your ideas, your printed words.  
    Sadly, in the thirst for the new, the recent and the past fell from sight, relegated to dark corners and dusty shelves.   
    But the printed word is rarely without someone, somewhere busying themselves through piles of papers and books rediscovering what a good story is, whatever its age.

    In this volume we offer up a small selection of those talents whose time has now come again.

    The grim reaper sat drinking a cup of coffee as a man in his office peacefully until his son ran in his office. "Dad you won't believe it the moon has hatched!" The Necromancer shouted. His father choked on his coffee. 
    "You alright Dad?" asked Lance worried. 
    "Yes, you psycho! The moon did what?" Blake, his dad said to his serial killer son. 
    "This is more important than you and me! The moon has hatched It was an egg!" Lance said hardly believing it himself and he saw it with his own eyes. 
    "Ok, I'll try to prioritize! What came out a mega space chicken?" asked Blake who was also the emperor of the solar system. 
    "If only it was a space chicken!" Lance said sadly. 
    "Then what hatched from it?" Ask his father. 
    "A giant space locust!" said Lance. 
    "Oh no they are world killers, they are worse than you!" said Blake,"They lay eggs in planets!" said Blake standing. 
    "Dad I am fate's-" Lance moaned. 
    "Assassin!" Blake interrupted. 
    "Whatever! We have a solar system to protect!" said Lance. 
    " Ok, then come on boy we need to get help," Blake said. 
    They ran out of the office. Through the gates of the other world and into the dimensional portal leading to the Earth and appeared in Blake's backyard. They paused slightly seeing the locust! 
    "Oh my God!" Blake said seeing the giant planet killer. It resembled a praying mantis. "It looks like fate wonder if they're related?" Lance said. 
    "Wouldn't surprise me he's insane, sending you off to kill people he doesn't like!" Blake said "I've not seen a space locust before," Blake stood in awe of the beast.
