Back Cover: Galen Pathwarden is the world's least promising knight. Cowardly, deceitful, and hardly noble, mired from a backwater castle far from adventure, he bickers with his brothers and schemes against his elders. But one eventful night, a sinister visitor intrudes on Galen's dreary life, bearing gold, unspeakable magic, and a centuries-old curse. This encounter launches Galen on a bizarre quest into swamp and forest, headed toward a mythical fortress. There he will find nightmares he can barely dream and exploits he can barely imagine.
