When a tribe of kenku confront the archwizard who gave them magic but kept them as slaves, the skies rain death.

When a knight of Cormyr journeys to the ruins of Tilverton, he begins to understand the terrifying power of the archwizards.

When phaerimm roam the world, enslaving orc and human alike, the great powers of the world must depend on an ally as deadly as their enemy.'

It was an exelent book, one of the best short storys books of the Forgotten Realms.

It has great storys that really follows the trilogy (The Return of the Archwizards Trilogy).

I would recomend this book to everyone who wants to know more about Shade enclave history and to anyone who really liked the trilogy.
