Demon Wars, 3: The Demon Apostle

The Demon  Apostle - Del Ray, 1999
Cover: Del Ray, 1999

With the demon dactyl and its foul minions defeated, the war-weary citizens of the kingdom of Honce-the-Bear wish only to begin rebuilding their broken lives. Yet the specter of civil war haunts the ravaged land – and a specter more fearsome still. For the demon, though defeated, was not destroyed. And now its vengeful spirit has found an unholy sanctuary. The elf-trained ranger Elbryan presses north to reclaim the savage Timberlands from retreating goblin hordes. His companion, Pony, mistress of gemstone magic, turns south to the civilized – but no less perilous – streets of Palmaris. Suddenly they find themselves caught up in a ruthless struggle to decide the fate of all Corona – a struggle that will push their courage and love to the breaking point... and beyond.
