Margaret Weis and co-author Robert Krammes bring the enthralling Dragon Brigade trilogy to a thrilling conclusion in this sweeping novel of worldwide war and personal redemption. Five hundred years ago, a clan of rebels was banished to the bottom of the enchanted world of Aeronne; ever since, they have sought revenge, and now they are waging all-out war on the rest of humanity. The attack of their deadly "contramagic" power will create a magical armageddon. In an effort to prevent further death, Captain Stephano de Guichen leads the Dragon Brigade, taking the fight to the Bottom. But those Above realize their only possible defense lies in the heretical secrets of contramagic. Only the Dragon Brigade can prevent an endless dark age. Their epic battle will test the mettle of those thrown into the breach and determine the fate of this magical world.
