Colonel Karl Gray was never certain whether he was dreaming of Amlydar or had been there, till the DIA General asked him to return. Military rifles, ammunition, and one small atomic bomb had been stolen from the United States. Karl Gray and Army Ranger Nick Quinlan were tasked to find and destory the weapons. Air Force Captain Samantha Mallory, an Amlydarian specialist, was selected to go with the soldiers as their guide. A Civil War rages in northern Amlydar as Nargon the Second has attacked the DeCrown Commonwealth. The sly Tyrant of Tash has covertly joined in the fray, the Free Marines fighting alongside the Legion of Parwin. Into this battlezone, three Outworlder soldiers must find their way to the seaport city of Tash while encountering Legion deserters, Valocerian warlocks, and ghosts from the Graywolf’s past.

At first, Karl Gray was a POW who wandered down the wrong tunnel underneath a church in the Balkans. That fateful turn took him to Amlydar, the world where his parents had been Empress and Lord-Protector. To survive, Karl Gray has to restore an exiled Princess to her throne, become a Stonekin friend of the trolls, and survive the warlocks who murdered his parents. Even after leaving Amlydar to heal from an assassination attempt, Karl Gray returns to the forested world to quell the rebellion of insane Imperator Nargon and the Tyrant of Tash. Even as he settles the problems of northern Amlydar, he encounters a trio of deadly vampires, a warlock still learning his craft, and the Apenecks who extirpated the Graywolf Clan in Amlydar and the Outworld. If he can bring peace to Amlydar, he may start new dynasties and reunite with the long lost son he has not seen in decades.

Colonel Karl Gray finds that bringing peace to Amlydar entails more than replacing the Tyrant of Imperial Tash. Sometimes Peace is more elusive than waging war. He now has to deal with the subtly insane Imperator Nargon of Parwin, the beautiful Lady Lillith known as the Witch of Parwin, and the mighty warlocks of Valoceria. In the middle of the peace process, Valocerian wizards attack Gray's allies and dispatch a trio of deadly female Vampires to end the Graywolf Dynasty before it can be established. If the Graywolf can survive these challenges, he might find his long missing son as well. If Gray can challenge the vampires, apenecks, and stubborn monarchs opposed to his rule, he may initiate the Golden Age of Amlydar. The Lord-Protector of Amlydar has to triumph to claim his legacy as the son of Kolgrim the Great and Zorion the Fairest.
