The Source of Darkness — Patricia Perry

An ancient evil seeks a powerful magic, the Source of Darkness, which is lost in the land. The truth behind the Source of Darkness unfolds as the ally forces piece together the scant clues carried down through their histories. The revelations they uncover reinforce the need to find the magic before the evil Mahn does. As the elves, dwarves, and the desert nomads gather at the gates of the Elven city of Bystyn to make their final stand, a handful of companion's frantically search for the Source of Darkness. Action, adventure, mystery, and magic fill the pages of this character-driven epic fantasy.
