In the second installment of the Valor series, Gorgyth's power has quickly returned and Aedra stands on the brink of war; but there is hope yet. Valor has set out on an epic quest to conquer untamed lands in order to reach the Colossus - a terrible monster whose very name has been lost to legend and myth. Along the way he finds adversity around every corner. Goblins, trolls, wolves and the wintery elements of the harsh Northern Lands all confront him in various ways; but as he battles through these challenges, the blank pages begin to fill in on the history of the book and the great war that started it all.
