Publishers Blurb:

Corona may have been saved from the horrible power of the demon dactyl, but not all is safe… Pony and Elbryan face continued peril from the corrupt church as well as the remnants of demonic servants that roam the land… Are they still empowered by the destroyed dactyl, or are they drawing strength form an even more sinister source?


Reviewer Comments:

If you're looking for Giants, Goblins, Dwarves, Centaurs, Elves, corrupted magical Monks and just about any other mythological creature, this is definitely the book for you. Without feeling too overcrowded or complex, this book has managed to include several characters, and is story telling at it's best. The tale takes place in a sort of Lord of the Rings type atmosphere and leaves you with the feeling that you've known these characters for much longer than the last fifteen minutes. Salvatore has managed to bring some extraordinary characters into the book that you find yourself rooting for by the time you hit the sixth page of the 48 page adventure.

The art is well drawn and looks good even in black and white. In fact I'm not sure it would look any better even if they added color to it. The characters seem to come alive even without it. This title gets two thumbs up from this Fanboy.
