The Coranians have won the war, and Kymru is defeated. For Havgan, however, the victory is not complete. Cadair Idris, the hall of the High Kings, remains closed to him. To gain entrance, he must locate the Four Treasures—the Stone, the Spear, the Cauldron, and the Sword—and bring them to the Guardian of the Doors. Only then can he proclaim himself High King of Kymru. But the Treasures were hidden long ago. In order to save Kymru, Gwydion the Dreamer must locate a long-forgotten song and the clues it contains before Havgan does. Following the dictates of the song, he persuades Rhiannon, her daughter Gwenhwyvar, and his nephew Arthur to set out with him on the dangerous quest. Dogged by Havgan's soldiers, they must hurry to find the artifacts. Soon, distrust and fear complicate their already difficult journey, and one of them must risk life and limb on the next move in their deadly game.

      The conquest of the land of Kymru is complete. The Coranian war leader Havgan seeks the title of High King but lacks the four sacred items that would confirm his kingshipthe Stone, the Cauldron, the Spear, and the Sword. Among the Kymri fugitives, Gwydion the Dreamer and his three chosen companions (Rhiannon the exiled queen; her daughter Gwenhwyvar, the Princess of Prydyn; and Gwydion's nephew Arthur, destined to be High King) set out to find the four items before they can fall into Coranian hands. Taylor's third installment of her epic reimagining of the story of Arthur (after "Night Birds' Reign" and "Crimson Fire") draws heavily on Welsh mythology rather than the traditional medieval legends used by Sir Thomas Malory in "Le Morte d'Arthur". This volume belongs, along with its predecessors, in most libraries.
