Talamadh. The World Harp. Possess it and yours is the power of Heaven and Earth. The player may strum harmony into existence-as did the Bards of the Stoneholding for generations. But now the World Harp belongs to an evil lord bent on world domination and destruction. A broken world's only hope is a young bard on the run across a war-torn landscape in a desperate quest to find a princely warrior before Talamadh sings out the final chord that plunges his world into eternal darkness.

About the Stoneholding series:
" A] world of fantasy that is both as familiar as a folktale, yet still refreshingly new at every turn."--Best-selling Map of Bones author James Rollins.
