Book Description
It had long been held in ancient legend that the majestic black raptors on Fundautum served as sentinels of freedom. With hundreds of years of peace in Kief’s homeland, their sightings have been rare. But when his dead grandfather leaves him a mysterious white stone and his nation is attacked by the Gars, the dark eagles begin to appear once more. As Kief watches his own town leaders betray his father and craft an alliance with the enemy, he’s determined to make them pay. He forms a secret band called the “Dark Eagles” to fight back. Unsuspected by the Gars, Kief’s little gang weaves together the perfect plot. However, Kief’s vengeful impulse for his father’s betrayal endangers all their lives and threatens the plan’s success. When he discovers that what the Gars are seeking in his mountain home will give them power over the entire world, he is forced to make a decision that could cost him his life. He comes to see that he is fighting for something greater than mere revenge. In the fight for his homeland Kief realizes he has more of a connection to the small white stone and the dark eagles’ charge to defend freedom than he ever imagined.
