This is a prequel to The Twelve Kingdoms. I hope you enjoy my review!
A Story of the Twelve Kingdoms
A wounded warrior trapped by the sorceress who knows him better than he does himself…
General Uorsin escapes the last devastating battle, only to find himself alone on a mountain, feverish and no closer to finding the paradise that drives him on. Salena, greatest shapeshifter and magic-worker of her people, springs the trap she’s set to protect her land—and to prevent the ravager Uorsin from ever reaching it.
Together, they spend a night setting the terms that will determine not only the rest of their lives, but the fates of the peoples of the Twelve Kingdoms—and the thirteenth.

If you are going to read this series make sure to check this one out before you start. This filled in some blanks and was a very fast read at only 30 pages it was worth it and fast. It does a great job teasing you about the series and makes you want to know more. Dont let the 30 pages scare you the author does a great job with adding emotion to this one as well.
