[Ballantine Adult Fantasy 28] • Red Moon & Black Mountain

Kendrenh, the Starlit Land, lay glimmering in the shadow of the Powers of Darkness: for Fendarl, fallen Enchanter of the Star magic and banished Lord of Black Mountain, had in his long exile grown strong—strong enough to challenge the rule of the Starbora.

Fendarl’s power waxed with the rising of the Red Moon, and nowhere in all the stricken land was there a champion who could stand against him.

Oliver, Nicholas and Penelope Powell seemed to be mere pawns in the savage conflict developing between the frozen horror of Fendarl’s power and the waning strength of the White Moon. But Oliver was called Tuvoi—Chosen One—and as the Night of the Red Moon drew close he learned that victory and safety for his beloved Starlit Land depended on him. But even that was not the end, for conquest does not mean victory. Much more was needed from Tuvoi—Chosen One—before the old prophecies could be fulfilled.
