WIZARD OF THE GROVE

Daw Books, 1999
ISBN:0-88677-819-0 (paperback)
IN THE AGE OF GODS--dwarfs, centaurs, and other Elder Races roamed the lands
freely, and the race of Mortals was created as a mere paything
for Lord Death.
IN THE AGE OF WIZARDS--the very earth was tortured by the power games
of these immortal chidren of gods, till wizardry went too far, and
the dragons flew to bring the wizards adn the world down in flames.
IN THE AGE OF MORTALS--the Elder Races have withdrawn almost completely
from the world of humans. Gone, too,
are the dreaded wizards. Or so the people of Ardhan believe,
for unbeknownst to them, ther is one wizard who
still survives, a master of evil bent upon claiming
lordship over the entire world. Mo mere mortal can stand aginst him, so the Elder Races have
chosen to intervene one final time. Their gift to
Ardhan is Crystal, the Child of the Grove, daughter of Power and the last-born
wizard who will ever walk the world. And thus the battle lines are drawn,
and the final war is about to begin....
