F B S T , Mina must learn the truth about herself
INALLY FREE OF THE LOOD EA OWER
that she has denied for so long, and she must go to the mysterious
Godshome to do it. Rhys, the monk of Majere, accompanied by his dog
Atta and the kender Nightshade, is given the dangerous assignment of
guarding the crazed god. And they must turn to those Mina can trust,
but that list is very short.
Their path is fraught with peril, for the undead Beloved want to make
Mina their leader. Krell, now a fearsome Bone Accolyte, brings fire and
death to the town of Solace in an effort to seize Mina. And her trusted
former lieutenant, the minotaur, Galdar, is ordered to try to turn Mina to
the side of evil by delivering into her hands her most hated enemy—
Valthonis.
The final installment in the popular Dark Disciple trilogy is written by
Margaret Weis, co-originator, with Tracy Hickman, of the worldwide
best-selling D ® series of novels, and author of numerous
RAGONLANCE
acclaimed books in fantasy and other genres.
“Weis [uses] conventional fantasy elements on the grand scale to produce excellent reading.”
—Chicago Sun-Times
“Demonstrate[s] … complete mastery of the art of turning classic fantasy elements into equally
classic well-told tales.”

About the Author
I am of the nature to grow old. There is no way to escape growing old.
I am of the nature to have ill health. There is no way to escape ill health.
I am of the nature to die. There is no way to escape death.
All that is dear to me and everyone I love are of the nature to change.
There is no way to escape being separated from them.
My actions are my only true belongings. I cannot escape the
consequences of my actions. My actions are the ground upon which I
stand.
