THE THRILLING SEQUEL TO THE TRIUMPH OF THE DWARVES
The Hidden Land lies broken. In the terrible battle to save the home of the dwarves, elves and humans, many sacrifices were made by great heroes, and at the last the alfar were defeated. Aiphaton, the son of the indelible and erstwhile Emperor of the AElfar, has sworn that his race will never again pose such a dire threat to the world; he is determined to seek out and destroy the last of his own people.
But there may be a greater enemy to face: an enigmatic mage with powerful magic at her fingertips is threatening the entire country.
Suddenly the Hidden Land's greatest enemy has become its only hope . . .
The action never lets up in this next exciting story in the saga of the dwarves and the alfar!

Markus Heitz trained to be a teacher after studying history and German literature, then going on to an MA in History. He spent several years as a journalist, writing in his free time, before the runaway success of The Dwarves allowed him to give up the day job. His debut epic fantasy novel, Schatten uber Ulldart (Shadows over Ulldart) was the first of many of his books to win the Deutscher Phantastik Preis (Germany's premier literary award for fantasy) in 2003. Since then he has frequently topped the bestseller charts, and his Number One bestselling Dwarves and Aelfar series have earned him a place among Germany's most successful fantasy authors. The DOORS series, where each book follows the adventurers as they choose a different door, have earned him a whole new audience as he plays with fantasy, thriller and mystery tropes to keep the reader always interested. He currently lives in Saarland, in Germany.

Driven by unrelenting action, [the book] springs to life through the vivid, vigorous writing * Kirkus on the Legends of the Alfar *
Markus Heitz is a phenomenon in the field of Fantastic Literature * Fantasybook Germany *
Tolkien with a dash of Gemmell and a sprinkling of George R.R. Martin * Malazan Empire on Markus Heitz *
There is adventure, fighting, death, one truly gruesome act and a people going to war. I enjoyed this book and I want more about the AElfar. Because at the end, stuff is going down * Books for Life *
The prose is sharp, the action sequences bloody and all in this has been a real joy to read. Throw into the mix some cracking double-dealing, some political machinations and all in this series has been a pure joy from start to finish and definitely one I'd recommend to other fantasy fans * Falcata Times *
Markus Heitz is once again setting off a fantasy fireworks display! * denglers-buchkritik.de *
Yet again, Raging Storm captivates readers with epic battles and a plot full of action * Die Rheinpfalz *
Heitz knows how to spin legends that never lose their attraction * The Aachener *
The story is filled with many original characters and unpredictable events, and in between there is blood, war and destruction * Booksection *
