Inhaltsangabe

"We do not kill children; we do not commit rape; we do not take pleasure in torment."


Dorac Kingsbrother was one of the King's Thirty in the kingdom of Marod. That was before he was found guilty of the murder of Lord Gahran's three children. Though Gahran was a traitor, his children were innocent. The code of the King's Thirty leaves no room for such a barbaric act, and for this heinous crime Dorac faces a life in exile.


The shame of such a sentence is something that Dorac can't brook, and so he sets off on a journey to the Old Stones, the place where those that seek death meet their end. Followed by Gormad, a child in search of adventure, Dorac is not alone on his final journey.


But not everyone believes that Dorac is guilty. Gemara Kingsister, head of the Six, investigates the murder of Gahran's children; though there is more at stake than the life of a lone warrior in this, the first of the Tales from Ragaris.
