When a kingdom is threatened by black magic and sorcery, unity and vigilance is all that can save its people. But for Prince Morticai, the power of dark magic is too good to resist. Lured away from his home toward the dark arts by a witch, he will soon understand that power does not come without a price. As his elder brother searches relentlessly for him, he uncovers a plot against the king and the very morals on which the kingdom of Melstone is built. It will be up to him to save his kingdom and everyone he loves from the unseen hands of fear and darkness, but he will find that the line between good and evil is not always easy to see.
