Lan and Kiska k’Adesina are hunting for Claybore’s legs.
The sorcerer had been dismembered and his parts strewn along the infinite length of the Cenotaph Road.
Over the years, through the millennia, Claybore had slowly reunited his parts.
Only Lan Martak stood between Claybore and domination of not a single world but myriads of them.
Lan had destroyed the sorcerer’s skin and in his own mouth Lan tasted the metallic tang of the magical tongue once used by Claybore to speak spells and world-wrecking curses.
Now he is forced to an unknown world, a planet of evil enchantment and lost souls, where the final lesson of magic lay silenced in the tomb of a hero.
Will Lan break the spell and stop Claybore? Or will an ancient curse close the road behind him…forever?
