A novel by Ian Irvine
Over a million copies of Ian Irvine's fantasy novels sold.
After every defeat, Lord Shambles comes back stronger than before, and more determined to punish humanity.
Having crushed all resistance on magical Iltior, he moves the war to Earth, and so much power has been drained that the world is on the verge of collapse.
Unfortunately, Earth's weapons are useless against this enemy. Only Runcible Jones can stop him, though it's an impossible battle - a fourteen-year-old boy against the most terrible sorcerer on two worlds.
Runcible will need every bit of his courage and cunning to save Earth.
But this time, someone close to him is going to die.
