It takes Dilvish two hundred years to escape Hell and reclaim his body. Dilvish does not leave hell unprepared. He returns with a number of very powerful spells and a faithful metal steed, Black who is far more than he seems. Together Black and Dilvish plan to hunt down Jelerak and make him pay. Heroic fantasy at it’s finest from a master storyteller. This edition has a bonus preview chapter from the Dilvish, the Damned novel The Changing Land.
