About this ebook
#1 New York Times bestselling author R. A. Salvatore brings an astonishing world to life in this high-stakes epic fantasy adventure as the intrepid hero Elbryan Wynden confronts the dark tides of destiny in his search for justice and peace.
A great evil has awakened in the land of Corona, a terrible demon determined to spread death and misery. His goblin armies and fearsome giants ravage the settlements of the frontier, and in the small village of Dundallis, their merciless attack leaves behind two shattered orphans: Pony and her lifelong friend, the youth Elbryan. Taken in by elves, Elbryan is raised to become a formidable ranger—a fateful role that will lead him into battle against an ancient evil.
Meanwhile, on a far-off island, a shower of gemstones will fall onto the black-sand shores. These heaven-sent stones carry within them an incredible power—the source of a unique form of gemstone magic and the key to all that is good in the world and all that is evil, and it is up to one young monk to liberate them from the corrupt monastery that harvests them. Pray they don’t fall into the wrong clawed hands.

I will give it a few chapters to update this review but in just the prelude its way to overly descriptive and those descriptions are just fluffing word count its not bad to let your reader have some imagination and fill in the gaps i feel you dont need to give every single detail it takes away from the enjoyment of the book in my opinion.

This book was my introduction to Salvatore, and I'm thoroughly hooked. I am invested in the characters and what happens to them. This is a solid fantasy read. Ready for book 2 in the series!

Fast paced adventure with what felt like non-stop action for most of the book. Definitely enjoyed it.
