BOOK ONE: THE DRAGONBONE CHAIR
Â
A war fueled by the powers of dark sorcery is about to engulf the peaceful land of Osten Ardâ€”for Prester John, the High King, lies dying. And with his death, the Storm King, the undead ruler of the elf-like Sithi, seizes the chance to regain his lost realm through a pact with the newly ascended king. Knowing the consequences of this bargain, the kingâ€™s younger brother joins with a small, scattered group of scholars, the League of the Scroll, to confront the true danger threatening Osten Ard.
Â
Simon, a kitchen boy from the royal castle unknowingly apprenticed to a member of this League, will be sent on a quest that offers the only hope of salvation, a deadly riddle concerning long-lost swords of power. Compelled by fate and perilous magics, he must leave the only home heâ€™s ever known and face enemies more terrifying than Osten Ard has ever seen, even as the land itself begins to die.
Â
After the landmark Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy, the epic saga of Osten Ard continues with the brand-new novel, The Heart of What Was Lost. Then donâ€™t miss the upcoming trilogy, The Last King of Osten Ard, beginning with The Witchwood Crown!
