Deep in the folklore of Tallinor lies a dark legend- the story of a powerful sentient who almost destroyed the entire land. Now, centuries later, any sentient who is discovered is executed. But in a village far from the royal city, a young scribe, Torkyn Gynt, blazes with undetected power and healing abilities. To fulfil his destiny, Tor must leave his home and his love, Alyssa, to become apprentice to the royal physic. Guided by a falcon and a mysterious woman who appears to him in his dreams, Tor embarks on a journey that will test his courage and his heart; a journey that can only end in triumph or betrayal.
