The second book of the epic medieval fantasy adventure series, and the sequel to "In the Amber Eyes of the Ogre". Most every child dreams of one day waking up in a castle. Many even carry that pristine vision of majesty with them into adulthood; to see, up close, the stately king and the dazzling queen; to rub shoulders with the princess and the knights in a festive great hall. But what the motley gang encounters at Malbarrow Castle they wouldn't wish on anyone. What's worse, the dark fortress might still harbor the very monsters that brought the mayhem; hence they don't want to stay there a moment longer than necessary. Yet they know that whichever direction they take, expect vicious beasts. However, like one jolted awake by a nightmare in the dead of night, strange things slowly crawl out from between the cracks in the cold stones... Ogres might not be the only creatures stirring beneath the ragged blanket of silence.
