Synopsis
Synopsis - The fabulous lands where wine and song were always sweet, where magicians and princes were kind and wise, where every purse was fat with gold. According to legend they layin the distant east, beyond the Narrow Sea and the Pepper Coast. Many a young merchant had cast his eyes in that direction before turning back, regretfully, to the known lands of the west for his first venture. Until Amalric met Janos Greycloack... Janos was a dashing soldier who dabbled in forbidden magic and wove tales of riches and mysteries beyond imagination. Under his spell, Amalric found himself setting out on an adventure worthy of Sinbad or Scheherazade...the quest for the Far Kingdoms!
