In this sequel to The Silver Sword, Princess Rose, Tag and Cankles have endured a terrifying trek through the dragon lands in the perilous Fire Rim Mountains. Having run the gauntlet to survive a series of deadly obstacles only to become trapped in the Sorcerer's lair, the trio is faced with their most trying quest to date. The unlikely friends are separated when Cankles is taken prisoner, spirited away by dark magic. His only salvation, if he can endure his captivity, is to remember his past; long forgotten memories that hold the key to his very survival and the lives of his friends. But nothing is as it seems... Battling against time and a manipulative shape-shifting Sprite that wants Cankles to remember his past for his own personal gains, it is the final push to reclaim the dreamstone before their nemesis, the malevolent Sorcerer, discovers the secret to unleashing its powers.
