Peter Last

The dark sorcerer Ashkelon and his reluctant apprentice Gideon Halcyon leave the carcass of Rachna behind them to confront a new threat. The dead march upon the North, raised by a necromancer far more powerful than any of the house of Sheol, able even to raise the fleshless dead. The Bonescribe has unleashed his hordes, and the world darkens as light itself fails at his touch. As the dead walk and the light dies, as men break and run around him, will Gideon hold his courage amidst the horrors of the Dark, or will he be forever lost to the Afterlight?
