'This compelling book is the first in a series of tales set on Zore, a planet billions of light years away from Earth. Zore is divided into two large kingdoms; each kingdom has their own King. Ziodus is the slightly larger of the two kingdoms, and it is lush, green and beautiful. King Zian and Queen Familia rule and protect Ziodus with a vast Army. King Zian also had the unconditional loyalty and help of his wizard, Arios. Terhibos is the second kingdom, and it is full of darkness and evil. The handsome but evil King Shibok and his wizard, Lemikel, rule the dark side of Terhibos with an iron fist and great power.'   (Publication summary)
