  • "In the City of Nohl, a princess is fated to be transformed by a river god into a monster and she prays for a hero to come and save her. The prayers are heard in a distant land by a farmer's son who acquires a magic sword and sets sail for Nohl."
  • "The River flowed through all the land, deep and unstoppable, a god in his own right...Everywhere he touched, the River God held dominion...Hezhi was an imperial princess; her blood carried the seeds of the River's power. When her favorite cousin disappeared, Hezhi searched throughout the sumptuous place with its ghosts and priests, giants and courtiers, and frightening creatures of wizardry. And the magic within her began to grow; soon it must attract dangerous attention. Hezhi's anxious quest ripened into a desperate fight for her own life--a battle she could not hope to win alone. Small wonder that the princess wished for a hero. And far away, a hero's journey began... -- From p. [2-3] of dust jacket."
  • "In een wereld die wemelt van natuurgoden, geesten en demonen, gaat een jonge prinses op zoek naar verdwenen leden van de koninklijke familie, terwijl een jongeman een avontuurlijke reis onderneemt."
