War threatens the peaceful land of Chiril… can one painter-turned-reluctant-swordsman really help? With an invasion of her country imminent, Tipper Schope is drawn into a mission to keep three important statues from falling into the enemy’s clutches. Her friend, the artist Bealomondore, helps her execute the plan, and along the way he learns to brandish a sword rather than a paintbrush. As odd disappearances and a rash of volatile behavior sweep Chiril, no one is safe. A terrible danger has made his vicious presence known: The Grawl, a hunter unlike any creature encountered before. To restore their country, Tipper, Bealomondore, and their party must hide the statues in the Valley of the Dragons and find a way to defeat the invading army. When it falls to the artistic Bealomondore to wield his sword as powerfully and naturally as a paintbrush, will he answer Wulder’s call for a champion?

"This book was a great continuation in the series. I absolutely loved it. the writing flowed so well, it kept me awake all night finishing it. While some of the names, yes, were hard to wrap around my mind, and really I just remembered the first few letter ;) I still loved the characters again. Their world is beautifully described and the character interactions are fun to read. Thanx for this early ARC of the book. I loved it and totally recommend it."

" I normally love fantasy books. This one, however, made the fantasy books look silly. If this were the first fantasy book I read it would of been the only one I read. "
— Leah, 2/6/2014" To be honest, I don't even know why I continued this series. It was very boring and I never got hooked. Lots of things were not explained so I was left confused even after the end of the last book. I couldn't even finish this book because of boredom. "
— Sarah, 9/29/2013" I love that Donita K Paul incorporates aspects of Christianity into her fantasy books, so readers get more than a good story. The story itself drags at points, but the story is cohesive and rational, with engaging characters. "
