Book I of 'The Bitterbynde' Trilogy.
In a world where creatures of legend haunt the lands of men, and to be caught outside after dark means almost certain death, the inhabitants of Isse Tower are amazed when a mute, starving youth is discovered outside their gates. With no recollection of either name or past, the foundling eventually discovers that the only hope of happiness lies with a wise woman who dwells near distant Caermelor.
To get there, the youth - who has been given the name "Imrhien" - must survive a wilderness of endless danger. Lost and pursued by unhuman wights, Imrhien is saved by Thorn, a warrior-ranger of the elite Dainnan brotherhood. They journey on, but for reasons unknown, a dark force is summoning the Unseelie, and malignant hordes amass in the night . . .
