The Scroll Of Isidor [Paperback]

Levin Ruck was once a great warrior mage: the battle-scarred wartime hero of the village of Dervine and defender of the Kingdom of Flaran. But with peacetime stretching into its seventh year, opportunities for action have been scarce  even in his role as Deputy Chief of the sleepy alpine village. So when Desma the orchard keeper rides in late one snowy night with news of ominous noises in the mountains, Lev knows the time for action has come. But when Chief Magnus refuses to act, Lev takes matters into his own hands. Defying orders, he and Desma ride to the mountains to investigate the source of the disturbance. What they discover is beyond their worst fears: a deadly threat has arrived on the villages doorstep  and Lev and Desma are Dervines first and only line of defence.
