An ancient citadel blessed by the gods with peace, freedom - and safety from the dark ones... Five hundred years ago, the hero Drake raised the walls of Stonekeep on the unholy grave of Khull-khuum, the Shadowking. Now, the good people of Stonekeep can barely remember such legends. They have forgotten the power of evil - and are as happy, and vulnerable, as sheep... But darkness again threatens the land. Ulger the Cruel has returned from exile, and he plans to release Khull-khuum from his tomb. Stonekeep will need a new hero... Cassius of Kural is the only human who understands the danger. His ally, Pendaran, is the only sorcerer who will help him. Together, they must wage a war against darkness with a makeshift army raised from the realms of dragon and faerie - an army they can barely control... The Oath of Stonekeep is a brand-new, original novel that bridges the thousands of years between Stonekeep I and Stonekeep II, the best-selling PC games from Interplay.
