Reviews
The traitor is Gorath, Chieftain
of the Ardanien, who came to warn Prince
Arutha of the impending threat that
Delekhan, Chieftain of the Darkanien
gathers the moredhel clans by proclaiming
that Murmandamus still lives and is being
hold captive by Prince Arutha in the city
of Sethanon. He wanted to unite the clans
to free their ancient leader (who is
actually a Panthanian Priest in disguise
in the Riftwar Saga).
Gorath
in the beginning travel with Locklear,
Squire of the Prince's Household and
Owyn, son of Baron of Timons. They are
met with various ambushes before reaching
Krondor to warn the Prince of Krondor.
Squire James or better known as Jimmy the
Hand later travels with Gorath to stop
the advances of Delekhan and his minions.
Readers
will grew to love Gorath as he gradually
bond with James and Locklear and the rest
of the main cast through many periods
spent together. However there is a rather
sad ending to the story. I will not tell
you about it. You'll have to read it for
yourself.
