The Wandering Fire (Fionavar Tapestry Book 2)

In the second book of Guy Gavriel Kay's Fionavar Tapestry, five individuals from our world must fulfill their destinies as a monumental war engulfs Fionavar, the first of all worlds. An ancient evil, the Unraveller, has escaped after millennia of imprisonment, plunging Fionavar into an eternal winter.

His devastating revenge threatens mortals, demi-gods, mages, priestesses, dwarves, and the Children of Light. The five transported from Earth must awaken the allies vital to Fionavar's survival.

But whether these legendary figures possess the power to break the icy grip of death upon the land, or even the desire to do so, remains unknown. The fate of Fionavar hangs in the balance. Can they rise to the challenge?
