Of Blood and Magic

Two years have passed since Keric Olwyhn defeated the demon-summoning sorcerers of the Academy, and the scroll mage has been content to return to his quiet life of a professor at the University of Sacreth. But his radical theories about the nature of magic have created a stir, and the conservative leaders of the Mage Council have decided to send Keric on a diplomatic assignment far from Sacreth. But what the Council doesn't know is that this mission will place Keric in the path of an adversary of a sort he faced once years before, an adversary eager to finish the job begun in the deadly corridors of the Labyrinth.

Meanwhile, Border Warden Coran Vasey has been serving with some of the other survivors of the Academy mission on the rugged southern frontier of Sacreth, which also seems quiet. But the enemies of Sacreth have been brewing a plot that will unleash another assault upon the Mage Kingdom. Keric and Coran must fight with every weapon they have, spells, swords, and raw determination, as they try to uncover the real nature of the greater threat while foes close in upon them from all directions.
