Publisher's summary

This traditional fantasy adventure follows the early adult life of Bengallen as he emerges from the ashes of a broken destiny and is thrust into an uncertain future. In many ways Bengallen wants to restore, reclaim, or revenge aspects of his old life, but he is presented with a place and people, living under the threat of an ancient evil, who are in desperate need of a hero. He will face difficult choices and be called upon to perform deeds that cause even the gods themselves to shudder. He will know pain. He will be cast down. The question before him is not whether to rise, but how. The narrative explores the burdens of a driven man, the adversity we all face in life, the personal faith which can inspire each of us to rise above, and the people that help and hinder us along the way. It is a story of synthesis, learning to incorporate what was, is, and could be into something that is useful and meaningful on its own. While the story takes place in a decidedly fantasy setting of medieval flavor, it is a human story based not only on the author's own personal struggles, but the struggles of many others to which he has humbly bore witness.
