| Publisher Description: From the precocious imagination and craftsmanship of 13-year-old author Noah Dunn comes the initial quest of the Succession series. Semvik feels he's more than a boy with an odd amber eye and shrouded birth. He flees the farmhouse on a sprawling, uproarious chain of adventures that uncover his gift for Words and war. Caravans and battles bear him to the great City where he enters the Eagles' Hill, training crucible of the Hentasii warrior-mages, bodyguards to the King. Grueling days of training and bawdy adolescent friendships, exhausting nights terrorized by spectral figures and hummingbird moments with the Words of magic hint that Sem's mysterious past and future may be tied to the missing Heir. Fans of both Robert Jordan's epic Wheel of Time and the humor of Artemis Fowl will welcome this ambitious debut from a promising young talent. A magician who conjures an owl from a feather. A warrior with Alexander's gift for strategy. A boy on the marvelous, funny and startlingly beautiful quest to become a man - and perhaps the king. |
