Synopsis
In The Dominion Of Fear. Only the magically adept can locate the secret portals that connect the wondrous hidden realms. But now just the fearless and foolhardy travel between the worlds—since vile usurpers have plunged two empires into chaos and despair, vowing to crush brutally all opposition to their merciless reign... Catastrophe has united the warrior Tiran d'Iste and his shape-shifting bride Princess Alexia with Chalaine, the beautiful enchantress, and Bariden, her sorcerer-prince. For nothing less than their combined magical skills can free their enslaved kingdoms. But the winding path they must follow through the realms is strewn with malevolent dangers-and it ends in the depths of darkness...where the ultimate evil waits.
