Well of Darkness by Margaret Weis
The first volume in the Sovereign Stone trilogy, a gripping fantasy series filled with unique characters, from the authors of the bestselling DRAGONLANCE books. The kingdom of Vinnengael lies at the heart of a land webbed with magical tunnels shrinking the vast distances between nations. The tunnels are protected by Dominion Lords; human citizens of Vinnengael transformed by the Gods into magical knights. This year, Crown Prince Helmos has been chosen to join the elite brotherhood, to the bitter disappointment of his younger brother, Dagnarus. Dagnarus' hatred of Helmos is equal only to his hunger to become a knight himself, yet his plans to gain power in the kingdom are only set in motion with the arrival of the shy, scholarly Gareth, who is recruited to be Dagnarus' whipping boy. Despite all their differences an unshakeable bond is formed and Gareth, with his prince's support, begins to master the forbidden Void magic. Unleashing forces that even the most powerful of magi fear, the two friends set in motion a chain of events that threaten to destroy the entire kingdom. A gripping story of magic corrupted, The Well of Darkness takes the unique approach of focusing on the evil protagonists in the story, as we follow them from boys to men, and is set to elevate the careers of bestselling Dragonlance authors Weis & Hickman to spectacular new heights.
