The Fool's Journey

Banished from his adopted country, agonizing over the loss of his friends and the death of his beloved, the young hero of The Fool's Blade must return to the land of his birth-the land that cast him out when he was a newborn. An unexpected encounter with a young and powerful witch sends him on a journey that will ultimately see him become a sacrifice in an ancient ritual intended to give immortality to the king of his former enemies. He must also save the witch, with whom he has fallen in love, from falling under the spell of a wicked queen.
