She slid down behind her boulder and fell in behind Lillin, who with the expertise and grace held only by elves, was picking a trail through the large rocks, around the battle field, toward the rear lines...Caris found a suitable position and peered from behind a boulder. Her breath caught in her throat. Gone were the ruthless grey people and the savage but somewhat familiar derks. They had been replaced with the creatures of her nightmares. Battle is joined. The King's Army face the Dark Lord's terrifying beasts, some familiar, others Caris wouldn't have believed possible. Her abilities will be stretched to the limit, and she will gain new ones she never imagined. Meanwhile, Janen with Kalen and a few of the King's Horse are trying to fight their way clear of the derk encircled valley. Kalen has received word that her betrothed (missing for three years) is being held captive, and Janen is determined to help her rescue him. Their journey to find him, however, is fraught with danger, and no-one seems able to give them any information about the menace that lies ahead. Underneath is an explosive epic fantasy book series full of danger, adventure, heroism and wonder. "This epic fantasy adventure series has the sweeping reach of Tolkein, the intricate characters of Hobb and the danger of George R.R. Martin." - Mal Smith "The most riveting epic fantasy fiction book of 2014" - Valerie Medhurst
