A burgeoning Saxon enchanter confronts a demonic plot against the ruler in the sequel to Ironfoot, a historical dream series set in twelfth century Britain.

Ruler Henry, campaigning in France, receives a muddled warning of a treasonous conspiracy in Lincoln Castle, his great fortress in the heart of Britain. His enchanters report that the letter contains both truth and is situated, but cannot determine which is definitely which. Putting small share in the warning, he transmits an eager young knight to business lead a troop of guys and investigate, and because the notice includes ideas of magic, Henry orders him to enlist assistance from Durwin, the youthful Saxon whose education he has been funding these last 2 yrs.

Durwin requires an associate and accompanies the troop to Lincoln, but quickly finds his blossoming skills like a sage are not warmly received. Upon achieving town, it takes merely a few hours for Durwin to understand that they are up against a vast Satanic conspiracy―and his companions may have already fallen into a deadly trap!
