Más información sobre el libro

In his impressive hardcover debut, L.E. Modesitt crafts a grand fantasy narrative that explores the classic battle between good and evil. Transitioning from fast-paced science fiction, Modesitt steps into the realm of fantasy with a carefully plotted story centered on the growth of a young magician, Lerris. He confronts profound moral dilemmas, building a rich atmosphere and presenting Lerris with intellectual challenges that resonate deeply. Faced with the choice of permanent exile from Recluce or embarking on a complex journey known as dangergeld, Lerris opts for the latter, a path fraught with danger and uncertainty. Though magic is seldom openly discussed, Lerris discovers his innate talent during rigorous training, essential for his survival against the unchecked power of the Chaos Wizards. As he navigates his quest, he encounters a gray magician who mentors him in harnessing his abilities and reveals the devastation wrought by Chaos in past conflicts. Lerris’s journey leads him through strange lands and ruins, culminating in a climactic battle against the embodiment of Chaos. Ultimately, he seeks knowledge, power, and true wisdom, marking the beginning of an epic saga.
