The Glass Throne is Book 4 in a stunning new fantasy series featuring unique sketches by Tolkien artist Roger Garland. With the crown whole again and the desert war won, Corin and his allies return north where another war has just started. Queen Ariane, having freed one city from the sorcerer Caswallon, discovers that attack a ploy, and the sorcerer’s second army has captured her capital, Wynais. With enemies on all sides and closing fast, Ariane decides to take the fight to Caswallon. Outnumbered and outmaneuvered Ariane’s forces cannot last long... Caswallon, hearing of his enemies success re-forging the crown, sends Vaarg the Dragon south to destroy them. During the attack Corin and friends are lost, Zallerak and Prince Tarin flee with the crown, while Corin and Tamersane stumble blindly into the mythical land of the Rorchai, a place where they are both expected and most unwelcome... As winter’s hold deepens throughout the Four Kingdoms, and Caswallon’s net tightens, Corin, Queen Ariane, Prince Tarin and Tamersane, find themselves not only fighting for survival but also for the continued existence of their world. Meanwhile, far to the north Shallan dreams of seeing her lover again, but she and Barin face a sea of foes as they cross troll-infested lands to reach the besieged city of Car Carranis. Corin has vowed to join her there but his chances look slimmer by the hour, and even if he survives the horrors sent against him how can he reach his beloved Shallan before that city falls?
