The Curer
Young Pawli has the true Gift, he is certain sure of it. But his uncle Brynmaur will not listen, preferring to spend his days smoking starweed, prey to visions. And then Khurdis Blackeye, the self-proclaimed sorcerer of the Dark Tower, tries to bring all of the Three Valleys under his yoke, and conjures something dreadful into the world. Pawli and Brynmaur find themselves facing this threat alone, until the advent of Roe, a young wanderer who turns out to be more than anyone thinks. Through fantastical worlds they must travel, and face uncanny foes in their own mountain forests, to confront an enemy both ancient and terrible. The Curer is the final volume of The Whiteblade Saga, the chronicles of Elinor Whiteblade and the shining sword that is both her treasure and her bane.
