Disaster has struck at the ruins of Akh-tazi: Maladar, the Faceless Emperor, is reborn, and Barreth Forlo is his prisoner, trapped in his own body.
Forlo’s friends must find a way to stop Maladar before his power grows too great - and the solution may lie with Azar, Forlo’s supernatural son.
Shadow of the Flame brings the adventures of Forlo, Shedara, and Hult to a fiery, thrilling climaz - and changes the continent of Taladas forever.
