Reina's brother Austyn has been declared the Child Warrior, but he's only six. What's a big sister to do? Allowed to accompany her brother, Reina discovers they're in deeper trouble than she thought-the Gold Wizard isn't shaping up to be the guide he's supposed to be and the Red Wizard's harpies and snakewolves are on their trail. If anyone's going to find a way to track down the elusive Sword of Chivalry for Austyn and get him into the Red Wizard's castle to fulfill whatever it is the obscure prophecy insists must be done, it's got to be Reina.
