In this gripping portal fantasy, a man must gather his strength to fulfill his promises and meet the demanding challenges of the wilderness he now calls home.
Despite barely surviving his arrival on a brutal world, Markus Wolfe has overcome each trial he's been confronted with since then. He's no longer just a stranger lost in the wild but the very heart of a growing pack. But with old wounds still gnawing at him and new responsibilities piling up, he must find a way to protect those who now look to him for leadership . . . even if he's not entirely sure he can protect himself.
Meanwhile, Markus also made a promise to his new ally, River: in exchange for the lizard-man's help rescuing the leopard cub Lathani, Markus will save River's people. But that means facing a forest of carnivorous trees. Markus will do everything in his power to defeat them, but his Core space still bears the scars of absorbing too much Pure Energy chasing false promises in days past. If he hopes to make it through this next round of tribulations, he'll need to unlock a new kind of magic . . .
But it's not all war and wounds. As Markus's team grows, so do the bonds-and tensions-between its members. From prickly alliances to Lathani testing her claws, they'll navigate the tangled web of loyalty as raw magic hums through the land. And when Fenrir the lizog is abducted, the pack's trust will be tested as they risk their lives to rescue him.
