About this ebook
Freed from imprisonment at last, the roguish Jack Ravenwild finds that even one century isn’t enough to quash old grudges
After a hundred years, Jack Ravenwild—thief, sorcerer, scoundrel, and accidental hero—is released from a magical confinement, only to fall into the hands of the marquise Dresimil Chûmavh, ruler of an exiled drow clan who sees an opportunity in Jack.
Through guile and subterfuge, the wily Jack escapes the drow to discover a new world waiting in his old stomping grounds, Raven's Bluff, a city equally abounding in fortune and danger. Unfortunately for Jack, he is best at stirring up the latter. His former archenemy, the Warlord Myrkyssa Jelan, is at large—and she isn't the type to forgive and forget. And worst of all, the drow aren't done with Jack and they mean to get him back.

This book was every bit the chaotic mess that City of Ravens was... and I enjoyed every bit of it. Jack Ravenwild was one of my favorite characters and I was always disappointed that his story was over after one novel. I'm glad that Richard Baker, who has become one of my favorite Realms authors, has revisited this hero. I look forward to another book about Jack and I hope that they eventually print this one so that I may own a hardcopy.
