Centuries have passed since the monstrous mage wars subsided and half the continent was turned into an ash-covered wasteland unfit for habitation. Once magnificent cities now lie in ruins, inhabited by monsters and undead so dangerous that a border wall had to be erected to protect peaceful inhabitants from the deadly threat. Thus the Wild Lands were born...
The fourth book in the "Outcast" series. Baron Coris Van Iser was ready to die, but the Higher Powers rejected his soul and he was forced to return to the mortal world. Wounded, frozen through and more resembling a creature from an icy hell than a human being. But he is alive and ready to continue the fight for the survival of his settlement. Now, to return home, he must travel a long and peril-filled path through the Wild Lands, and also attempt to uncover the secrets of long-forgotten centuries.
