When you fall in love with royalty, you might as well stick you head in a noose. So Bannor Starfist learns, at the end of a rope.

Then things get worse.

Now a target for an insane moon goddess, Hecate, Bannor must learn to control his enormous but newly recognized power, or he will be consumed by it. Time is against him, Hecate's minions are closing in on him, devastating the land and world that he loves.

In a clash with evil he is joined by Elves, Savants, Humans, and Dwarves in their efforts to resist Hecate's assault. Outnumbered and out manoeuvred at every turn, it is a losing battle that drives Bannor closer and closer to capture and confrontation with the goddess herself.

How does one man fight a god? Armed with little more than an axe and a love for his Elven wife Saral, Bannor must find out or lose his soul to darkness.
