A Beggar's Apprentice
THE TRUTH IS IN THE TALE
His father dead from wounds received in a calamitous battle, Sorley sets sail for rugged, lonely Innisiar, farthest west of all the isles, with little more than the shirt on his back.
But Sorley bears a tale, one with deep roots in Innisiar, one he believes will help him cheat the cold finality of his father's death and claim the magical rune their forefathers wielded. And with it, Sorley's place in the world.
Innisiar and its folk are not what Sorley expects, and he finds himself drawn to the most unlikely soul for guidance: the cunning, silver-tongued beggar, Liath. Yet nothing can stop Sorley's tale from taking an abrupt turn to darkness, from casting him into a sea of perilous secrets. Among them are those of Innisiar's folk, but most terrible are those of Sorley's ancestors. All must be brought to light, for a malignant force threatens Innisiar, one Sorley alone can sense.
In this epic fantasy featuring storytelling and magic, a young man embarks on an adventure to fight for his home, people, and purpose.
