Dark Vengeance<br />

ED GREENWOOD<br />

“Greenwood, creator <strong>of</strong> the popular Forgotten Realms<br />

world and the Band <strong>of</strong> Four <strong>series</strong> (The Dragon’s Doom,<br />

etc.), spins a chilling Norse-inspired tale <strong>of</strong> the Niflghar,<br />

dark elves inhabiting the cold, subterranean universe <strong>of</strong><br />

Dark Below.” —PUBLISHERS WEEKLY ON DARK WARRIOR RISING<br />

Orivon Firefist was captured as a six-year-old child by the<br />

Nilfghar—the dark elves—who attacked his village by night<br />

on one <strong>of</strong> their surface raids.<br />

Fifteen years later, he was a moon-pale, scarred, muscular giant<br />

<strong>of</strong> a man, who spent his days at forgework for a dark elf family.<br />

He was also forced to use his great strength to shift furniture in<br />

the grand rooms <strong>of</strong> their castle. He had been trained (and flogged<br />

and ordered about) by the beautiful Tsarnarra, a lash-wielding<br />

matron who is icily cruel, but proud <strong>of</strong> the slaves that she<br />

has trained.<br />

Through all <strong>of</strong> this, Orivon’s spirit had never been broken and he<br />

rose up and opposed his underworld tyrants. He has successfully<br />

returned to the surface world home that he thought only existed<br />

in his most distant dreams.<br />

But the score is far from settled. Years <strong>of</strong> oppression and new<br />

revelations <strong>of</strong> the dark deeds <strong>of</strong> his former captors only fuel<br />

his forge <strong>of</strong> rage. And the fact that their evil still permeates the<br />

underworld only intensifies his desire for a dark vengeance.<br />

Praise for Dark Warrior Rising:<br />

“A page-turning, swash-buckling thriller <strong>of</strong> a tale <strong>of</strong> dark elven magic.”<br />

—J. ROBERT KING, EDITOR OF REALMS OF THE UNDERDARK<br />

“No one is more adept a world-builder or as entertaining a storyteller<br />

as Ed Greenwood.”<br />

—DOUGLAS NILES, CO-AUTHOR OF FORGOTTEN REALMS:<br />

MENZOBERRANZAN—THE FAMED CITY OF THE DROW REVEALED AT LAST!<br />

“Ed Greenwood is a master <strong>of</strong> <strong>fantasy</strong> adventure world-building. His<br />

magic and wizardry are wondrous to all.”<br />

—MARGARET WEIS, AUTHOR OF MASTER OF DRAGONS<br />

ED GREENWOOD is the creator <strong>of</strong> the <strong>bestselling</strong> world <strong>of</strong> the Forgotten<br />

Realms as well the Band <strong>of</strong> Four <strong>series</strong>. He lives in Ontario, Canada.<br />
