Enchanter returns us to a world in the grip of prophecy and war. Axis has bested his foes and gone off to the Icarri stronghold, Talon Spike, to discover his heritage and his relationship with his newfound father, the Icarri elder StarDrifter. There he will learn to wield his new Enchanter powers, come to know the ways of the Icarri people, and once again encounter the haunting Azhure, the woman warrior who is more than she seems.

Each truth he reveals unearths another puzzle. Axis is left with tantalizing clues that he must use to fulfill a prophecy and reunite the bird-like Icarri and the forest dwelling Avar peoples into a single powerful kingdom under his rule. Only then will balance be restored and peace descend upon the land.

In his way stands his hateful half-brother Borneheld, who would destroy Axis for taking away the only thing Borneheld ever cared about: the beautiful Farraday, champion of the Avar people . . . and Axis's true love.

Perhaps even more deadly, the monster Gorgrael waits impatiently for winter to bring its power once again, so he can continue his destructive drive into the heart of Achar.
