Book III of The Great Tree of Avalon trilogy

The wondrous world of Avalon is about to be destroyed—for the warlord Rhita Gawr, now a wrathful dragon, is bent on conquest. And he is using his most potent weapons: an army of deathless warriors, a corrupted crystal, and a plague of arrogance and greed.

Three unlikely heroes are Avalon’s only hope. To succeed, they must surmount enormous obstacles, both in the world around them and deep inside themselves. Tamwyn, the wilderness guide, must travel the secret pathway to the stars—a journey that will take him all the way to the River of Time, and to the true source of magic. Elli, the brave young priestess, must defeat a terrible sorcerer in a realm of utter darkness. And Scree, the eagleman haunted by tragedy, must lead his people to do what seems impossible. All this culminates in three great battles: one deep underground, one on the muddy plains, and one high among the stars.

This spectacular final volume of T.A. Barron’s bestselling trilogy combines gripping adventure, vivid imagery, and profound ideas about humanity and nature.
