From the Publisher:
Angus Wells carved a place for himself on the shelves of hundreds of thousands of fantasy readers. Now, with Lords Of The Sky, it is clear that he has saved his most sweeping and imaginative tale for an epic more powerful than anything he has written before. For centuries, the Dhar have had to face the Ahn, fierce warriors who would lay claim to Dharbek, the land they call their ancestral home. Now, in fantastic airships powered by magic, the Ahn have begun their greatest campaign yet. In preparation for the coming onslaught, Storymen like Daviot travel the land collecting tales and sharing the history it's their responsibility to safeguard. But Daviot's travels show him the dark side of Dharbek, and inspire him to be a catalyst for change, to overcome doubt and fear, and pursue the one dream that has eluded Dharbek. Using his special gifts for storytelling and world-building, Angus Wells reaches new heights with a story as ambitious as it is broad in scope. Lords Of The Sky has all the action, adventure and magic a fantasy-lover could desire, and tackles social change, prejudice, the value of genuine friendship and the power of enduring love.
From the Back Cover:
It is known as the Coming, and the very word strikes fear into the hearts of the people of Dharbek. Once every half century the Worldwinds change, and the Ahn send magical airboats from their fortress islands to wage war on the Dhar. Now, having mastered a powerful new sorcery, the Ahn plan the greatest Coming of all - a merciless conquest of the lands they once owned and a total destruction of the hated Dhar. But Daviot, a Dhar storyteller and memory of his people, has an impossible dream - to bring peace to the two warring races. His only allies are a beautiful blind mage; an Ahn warrior who has forgotten his history and heritage; and a beast-man, a hybrid creation of cynical magic, rebelling against a lifetime of persecution and servitude. Together they journey to the lost lands of the north to search for the one weapon that will ensure that the Dhar and the Ahn listen to this small band of dreamers. But they may find that a weapon of peace can wreak far greater destruction than generations of war....
