Stated first printing. Staple bound book with glossy paper wraps, full color covers. Sharp corners, crisp edges. See pictures for over all condition. Crystalline fragments - these are all that remain of the most precious object known to the elves who inhabit the World of Two Moons. The star-faring vessel that brought the Wolfriders and their elfin kind to this planet lies in ruins, destroyed by the seductive evil of Winnowill, the Black Snake. Once she was lord of the Gliders. Now she plays shape-changed courtesan to Grohmul Djun, the human warlord whose ambition is no less than mastery of the entire world. Only Cutter and his Wolfriders stand in the way, but can they resist magical malice amplified a thousandfold by the ancient power of the Shards?
