When five young professionals and college students visit the magical country of Fionavar strange events begin to occur. Their leader and guide is Silvercloak, a wizard, whose magic is bound to his companion and friend, king of the dwarfs. The five find that they are important cogs in the spiraling war between the Light and the Dark. Dave gets lost in transit. Kim becomes the leading seer of the country. Jennifer is kidnapped by the forces of the dark. Paul, whose grief for a lost love who died is insurmountable, offers to sacrifice himself on the summer tree. And, Kevin finds friends among the residents of Fionavar. The book ends as the group comes together once again hoping to rescue Jennifer. I dislike books in a series which cannot stand alone which accounts for my three star rating. Otherwise, I'd give this one four stars as I enjoyed the read very much.
