Tolkien and Ann McCaffrey. With the team of Preiss and Reaves, there are three, and may they write and write and write.” —United Press International Somewhere beyond the northern mists lies a land where dreams live and dragons are real.

Beyond the mortal world of man, amongst the vast tainted nothingness of the void, exists the Dragon World. A tiny beacon of light amid the nightmares of mankind. A beacon of light that stands at the brink of destruction. Time is running out; the balance of magic is changing; the land of the Dragons is being destroyed.

In Bennett's world there's no such thing as Dragons, but if that's so, why are there two huge blue eyes staring at him out of the darkness? Bennett sets off on the adventure of his life. Can he do it? All in one night?
