Follows 'The Magic Of Recluce'.
This book returns to the magic world of Recluce and chronicles the story of the founding of the island kingdom. It is the heroic tale of Creslin, the powerful weather-magician, who chooses exile rather than an arranged marriage and who sets out on a search for his true identity as a man. In constant conflict with the mysterious white wizards of Candar, Creslin's story, full of magic, danger, love and eventual triumph, is a powerful successor to the highly acclaimed 'The Magic Of Recluce'.
