You're set up to expect something interesting by the prologue wherein a farmer's wife finds a babe in her barn and tells her husband in no uncertain terms they'll raise the child. When she dies, years later in childbirth, her husband's anger, grief and long held in resentment leave the boy, Lann, no choice but to stay as far away from the man as often as possible. His avoidance lands him with a witch after he's blinded by a monster. Enter a sword filled with dark magic. It restores his vision, but at what price? Follow Lann, Fleya the witch and Dreadblade, the dark sword as they go forth to find the source of growing evil upon the lands. I liked it very much and ordered the sequel as soon as I was done. ( )
