Sir Dalton, a knight in training, seems to have everything going for
him. Young, well-liked, and a natural leader, he has earned the respect
and admiration of his fellow knights, and especially the beautiful Lady
Brynn.
But something is amiss at the training camp. Their new
trainer is popular but lacks the passion to inspire them to true service
to the King and the Prince. Besides this, the knights are too busy
enjoying a season of good times to be concerned with a disturbing report
that many of their fellow Knights have mysteriously vanished.
When
Sir Dalton is sent on a mission, he encounters strange attacks,
especially when he is alone. As his commitment wanes, the attacks grow
in intensity until he is captured by Lord Drox, a massive Shadow
Warrior. Bruised and beaten, Dalton refuses to submit to evil and
initiates a daring escape with only one of two outcomes–life or death.
But what will become of the hundreds of knights he’ll leave behind? In a
kingdom of peril, Dalton thinks he is on his own, but two faithful
friends have not abandoned him, and neither has a strange old hermit who
seems to know much about the Prince. But can Dalton face the evil
Shadow Warrior again and survive?
