From Inner Flaps:
Scion of Cyador continues the story begun in Magi'i of Cyador. Exploring the rich depths of the
history of Recluce, Magi'i of Cyador introduced Lorn, a talented boy born into a family of Magi'i.
A fastidious student mage who lacked blind devotion, Lorn was made into a lancer officer and
shipped off to the frontier-a career that comes with a fifty percent mortality rate.
Having survived his extended stint fighting both barbarian raiders and the giant beasts of the
Accursed Forest, Lorn has proven himself to be a fine officer . . . perhaps too fine an officer.
As his prowess has grown, so has the number of his enemies and rivals. Too much success has made
him a marked man. When he returns to his home, both he and his young family become targets while
all of Cyad is in upheaval over deadly political infighting. But Lorn is now hardened, a deadly
fighter himself, especially when the Empire is at stake.
Scion of Cyador is the completion of another grand story in the Recluce saga.


To Lee and Sheila:
may their house prosper
