When Jame returned to Knorth hall to help her brother Torisen name all the fallen fightersâ death banners stored
there, she made the disturbing discovery that those banners splattered with their ownersâ blood also have trapped their
ownersâ souls. She also found a contract proving her cousin Kindrie to be legitimate, proving that there are three fullblooded Knorth. Three full-blooded Knorth means that the Three-Faced God can be manifestedâsomething that
none of the three are likely to want to do, if they have any choice in the matter.
Returning with this unwelcome knowledge to school at Tentir, Jame continued to dodge the attentions of an
unwanted admirer, strengthen her link to her feline hunting ounce, work with the rathorn colt Deathâs-head to insure
that it doesnât resume its attempts to kill her, and, of course, kept causing plenty of unintended havoc. She also had to
help fight off attacks from hillmen, repel a stampede of yarkcarn (think warthogs the size of mammoths), fight in the
Winter War (a mock conflictâor, at least, thatâs how it was supposed to be), and solve the mystery behind the death
of her evil uncle, who somehow is still spectrally manifesting himself in nasty ways. No doubt about itâJame is back,
and with a vengeance, as the popular and critically-praised fantasy adventure series continues.
