Product Description

Booklist
"the fast-paced adventure, compelling characters, and conflicts
that make sense will reward readers of this fully realized fantasy"

Book Description
Maurey has always been persecuted for the colour of his skin
and eyes. He has never known more about his parents than that his mother
died the day he was born. When the king's chancellor discovers that Maurey
possesses a ring belonging to the missing queen and another that may be the
key to finding the hidden kingdom of the inhuman warlocks of Talverdin, he
is imprisoned, revealed as a Nightwalker, and sentenced to execution in
philosopher's fire. Rescued by a young baroness with her own reasons for
fearing the chancellor, Maurey sets out on a dangerous journey to the land
of his father's people. If he and Annot are to survive and prevent the
destruction of the last refuge of the Nightwalkers, Maurey will have to
call on human and inhuman skills he never knew he possessed, and win the
trust of both sides of his family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too, 13 Mar 2007

(TOP 100 REVIEWER)   
Maurey used to be a student at the grammar school at Fowler College, but that was before his guardian passed away. Suddenly all of his tuition money, paid through college degree level, mysteriously disappeared. Now Maurey is an unpaid servant at the school, and whipping boy for bored students. In addition to being a charity case, he bears a striking physical resemblance to the sorcerers who were driven from the land many years ago. He is insulted, harassed, even assaulted, at virtually every turn. His only escape is the dark tunnels underneath the school. His extraordinary night vision helps him navigate and elude his captors. Until tonight.

Tonight he got away from the bullying students and ran directly into the King, along with the master of the school and the King's Chancellor. As a result of the impact, the chain around his neck bearing rings from his mother, the only thing he has that connects him to her, falls out of his shirt. First accused of theft, closer examination of the rings causes a much greater stir. Maury finds himself locked in a dungeon, waiting to be tried for sorcery. If his greatest fears about his ancestry are true, Maurey will undoubtedly be killed. His only possibility for help seems to be a very unlikely and unwise choice.

All I can say is WOW! I've read a fair amount of fantasy/paranormal books, and this is one of the best I've come across. Amazingly well-developed and imagined, both character and story-wise, intelligent, and witty. It's books like this, and the knowledge that it's only book one, that make me love this job!
