The End of Earth and Sky

Young Calin Lowford sees his best friend slain by a creature not seen in the land since the ancient wars. Forbidden to join the fight against these foes, he is sent as servant to the wizard Rijeth, to learn of strange magics and stranger omens. His quest to avenge his friend will lead him through sorcery and peril to a secret at the end of the world — the mysterious Eye of the Maker.
