Synopsis: The third installment in a series that uncovers the secrets of the ancient civilizations of the Forgotten Realms world
Lurking in the ruins of the Cursrah is a horrific tale of greed, power, and revenge. The Protector crawls forth, the shade of a dead city whose rulers refuse to die.
In two distant epochs, the stories of young adventurers unfold: Craving excitement, a tomboyish princess disobeys her mother’s orders to explore the countryside with her two male companions. Their journey closely mirrors that of Amber, Hakiim, and Reiver, a trio of friends living one thousand years in the future.
Though separated by time, both parties of adventurers learn of a dreadful destiny they cannot escape . . . and of a deadly threat to all they hold dear. Why did Cursrah fall? Who was the Star of Cursrah? And how can a long-dead city threaten the modern realm of Calimshan? Uncover the secrets for yourself—if you dare.
