For a millennium, men and giants have abided together in the snowy wilderness of
the Ice Spires, all paying fealty to a single dynasty of human kings.
A thousand years of peace is about to shatter.
When an ogre horde kidnaps Brianna of Hartwick - the fiery heir to Hartsvale's
throne - King Camden must choose between love of his daughter and duty to his
kingdom. Only Tavis Burdun, a brash firbolg scout who coverts Brianna's hand,
has the courage to go after her. Before he saves the princess, though, he must
uncover the kingdom's most jealously guarded secret...
The rise of a new queen has shattered the ancient peace of the Ice Spires, and
the only thing left standing between Hartsvale and the giant tribes bent on her
destruction is a lone scout armed with a single golden arrow.
And now that sanctuary is about to end.
The queen is trapped in a remote citadel, surrounded by giants, and the scout
who would save her must now leave her and undertake a harrowing journey to
summon help. Only, as the scout soon learns, the greatest danger to the queen is
posed not from without, but from within.
For untold centuries, a banished titan has lurked in the cold, forbidden dusk of
the Twilight Vale - imprisoned for a crime as black as the boreal night.
With the birth of a new king comes his freedom.
The kingdom hangs in the balance as the queen's consort is forced to choose
between his love for his son and the dark prophecy that says his child will
unleash a cataclysmic war. But before he can choose, a thief steals both the boy
and the choice away from him.
