Follows 'The Death of Chaos'
On the highland plateau of Candar, deep in Recluce's past, a new world is being born. Here Nylan, the engineer and builder, will work to raise a great tower on the Roof of the World. Here the exiled women warriors will live and survive to fulfill their destiny. Here a revolutionary new society will emerge... but only if Nylan can control the magical powers growing within him and build his tower and defences before the armies of the lowland nations arrive.
