Description
Long ago the Mages of Alasea, beset by a dark and implacable evil, made a last desperate stand to preserve some remnant of their once-beautiful land. Knowing their own destruction to be inevitable, the Mages gathered the last of their magic and stored it away against the need and peril of a distant time. In doing so the Mages gave the people of Alasea a future and a hope -- and damned themselves forever ...

But though the Mages are long dead their ancient foe is not -- and when the Dark Lord learns of Elena's power he turns all of his terrible strength against her.

Media Reviews
'With every new book....Clemens' storytelling expertise becomes more compelling' T. Brooks '(the book) grabs at your heart & tears a little hole, then another & another--a brutal & beautiful ride. I can't put the book down!' R A Salvatore 'I loved every page of this book. Clemens has constructed a world of magic that's never been seen before, with a cast of beings who are so engaging & entrancing that you never want the story to end' John Saul 'The action is lively and a-plenty' SFX 'Clemens holds you gripped with these stories, each thrilling in their own right, and becoming more so as the strands come together. WIT'CH STORM is a romp, but the pace of the tale itself never lets up for more than an instant, just giving you enough time to catch your breathe before it drags you onwards. Masterful and compelling.' STARBURST
