About
Together in one volume, the WIZARD OF THE GROVE duology contains Tanya Huff's first two novels, CHILD OF THE GROVE and THE LAST WIZARD.
CHILD OF THE GROVE
In a far-ago age, wizards ruled the world with a power so dark even the Elder races feared them. But, when their power caused them to unleash dragons from the depths of the earth itself, they were undone by their own hand, thus freeing the world.
Or, so it was thought.
For now, after many years of hard-won peace, the human kingdom of Ardhan is under threat from the dread king of Melac. Yet the real danger is the king's counselor, Kraydak - a wizard - who survived the slaughter of his kind and has waited until now to rise to power once again. But, the world will not be as easy to vanquish this time.
For the royal family of Ardhan is no longer merely made of men. They have blended their destiny with the immortals, who dwell in the Sacred Grove - a place untouched by darkness or death. And, it will fall to the youngest of that enchanted bloodline to stand against the coming. Her name is Crystal. And, she is the one thing in the world Kraydak fears...
A wizard.
THE LAST WIZARD
Crystal was born of a bloodline both mortal and magical, raised to one day become a wizard and to defeat a long-hidden evil that threatened the realm of Ardhan. Through many dangerous adventures and lethal deceptions, she was finally victorious. And, peace was at hand.
Yet, it was not so for Crystal.
As the last living wizard, she soon found herself living a life without meaning. For while the people of Ardhan prospered in the world she had delivered, Crystal, with her still-growing powers - could find little solace. She was alone.
Then, by chance, she saved a mortal life with her gift, re-igniting her bonds with humanity and inspiring her to undertake a new quest-to find a long-hidden treasure unlike any other. A hidden cache of magical forces that only she can control or destroy.
But, the prize she seeks just might do the same to her...
