Will and Halt find out that the Temujai (the riders of the eastern steppes) have come to take over the western hemisphere and they are starting with skandia then to Araulen. This makes the skandians and Araluens Temporary Allies to try and stop this unstoppable force of men.
This books theme is the power of friendship and how it can get you through anything.
It has a narrator that sees into Will's thoughts only and occasionally some of his enemy's and allies. This book is extremely intense and has a great storyline that has some really interesting historical fiction elements in it.
this book high tensions raised and recommended it to people who enjoy action and adventure

Another aspect commonly praised is the fact that Will, the main protagonist still asks for the help of others
