War threatens the free country of Verandar, and for Exavier Shadowolf, an ambassador schooled in the Art of Magick, fate sits heavy in his hand.
His country is a place he has come to love; an anarchic state struggling for survival as slavery and despair push against its every border. When his mentors give him a chance to prove himself as their equal in his chosen field, metamancy - the Art of Change - he accepts and finds himself travelling abroad to the Republic of Knale. In this new land, he encounters a powerful force he has never heard of before. This... Science... begins to cause havoc with his magickal abilities, driving him to find answers as to what laws have chained his previously formidable powers. In his attempts to free Verandar from the destructive threat of technology he is led far from his home, acting under the will of the insidious Councillor Darke, a man who will stop at nothing to carry out his twisted agenda. Shadowolf is a story of self-discovery, rampant adventure, and ultimately, the cost of carrying through with an action until the bitter end.
