The High Magic is dead, glory has become memory and the wolves have the run of the forest. People don't go there any more, over the hills to the west. There does He dwell, in the wild wild wood. The pages of the history books of the Nine Realms are littered with tales of betrayal. Centuries have passed since the gods and their angels walked on Avaley. The gates of Vorain, fortress of heaven are closed. Mortal prayers go unheard above the golden walls.
War is coming. The Lord of the Western Wood is confined, but his will stretches beyond the prison of the Guardian Stones. His servants haunt the shadows of the land, weaving lies and destruction to bring about the fall of the kingdoms. And it will begin here, it will begin with Falk. A shepherd boy from the Northfold who has never been beyond the valleys of his home. Now the simple life he takes for granted will be torn apart. Falk is about to find himself manipulated by an evil older than the nations of the world, in a conflict where defeat is eternal death.
The Statue Maker is the first of three books in the 'Blood of the Dragon' series. The next two, 'The House of the Silver Queen' and 'The Lighthouse in the Desert' will be available soon.
