Faros is Krynn's last hope against the plague that threatens to destroy it in this final title in the Minotaur Wars trilogy

The War of Souls has ended, but Krynn is still rife with conflict. The elven land of Silvanesti is no more, replaced by the minotaur colony of Ambeon. And in Nethosak, new emperor sits on the throne, his dark Protectors backed by the magic of the Forerunners.

Resistance to the empire is all but crushed. The rebellion's last hope, Faros, struggles with personal demons. But when he is unexpectedly bolstered by the very gods he has renounced, the legitimate heir rises up against terriyfing obstacles, both all too real and fantastical. A plague of abominations descends upon Faros's forces as they storm the capital-forcing a memorable showdown with the evil usurpers.
