-- Along with awesome power comes the greatest test of will -- Despite his humble farming roots, young Fearn displays incredible powers. Blessed by Dainua to harness the strength of every soul surrounding him, he's known as an Asinta and could help the kingdom vitally. However, due to dark events that marred the name of those akin, Fearn finds himself distrusted by the superstitious villagers and even his own father, Dair . . . effecting untold sorrow. To overcome the ancient ills of prejudice will not be easy. Luckily, there's magic, too, beyond the spatial world-in words. As taught to be a "teller of tales" by Dair, who long has honed the craft, Fearn learns with creativity to also quickly capture minds. When wicked comes to visit, however, one mentor alone will guide the boy-a mentor with a story that has yet to end with due revenge. Fearn soon shall discover the cost of love and loyalty-of hate and betrayal-and venturing to save his land, he'll run the risk of losing himself, as deamhons play for keeps.
