Overview

They were all gone: the Locksmith, the Signeurs, the Book of Red - all defeated; but darkness still encircles the Worlds. Tamasa - the Dark River - his time is coming. The twelve-headed post knew how to beat him, Colin was sure of it; they knew his weakness. If only he could find it - somewhere out there in the Worlds. Of course, there were other problems. William was now clearly a wizard and wizards were mainly known for being evil. Can he control the great power that he now possesses, or will it take control of him? Victoria had a different problem. She had seen inside Gennaro's book - the Book of the Dead. She knew whose name was written there, but could she do anything about it? The day of the final battle is fast approaching. Pulgam is prepared, but they cannot fight alone. They must reach out to ancient allies - the Ancelet and the great city of Duqnes. However, treachery lurks everywhere. Will darkness fall over the Worlds; will the Dark River triumph again?
