Publisher's summary

In book three of the Dragonslayer series, Astrid accepts her duty and follows the winter route - until she's bitten by a dragon. Everyone knows dragon bites are poisonous and deadly, so she reluctantly accepts her impending death. In a twist of fate, she survives.

Desperate for an explanation, Astrid believes she has somehow been protected by the black stone she keeps with her at all times, a stone that emerged from the sole of her foot a year ago.

Determined to find out what the stone is and what kind of powers it possesses, Astrid begins a journey that leads her to alchemists and an army of men under the rule of the powerful warrior, Mandulane, the acting lord of the Krystr army. Mandulane's mission is to spread the word of the new god Krystr, which preaches the evil intent of women and the danger they pose to men, who are entitled to dominate the world. Rumors about this new god and army have spread, but Astrid is the first Northlander to encounter them. Soon, she stumbles upon a secret of a far-reaching and mind-numbing plot that will impact the entire world.

Astrid must find a way to spread the news of this threat and protect her people and everyone else at risk. She's convinced the answer lies inside the Stone of Darkness. She must find a way to understand the stone and the powers she's convinced it must hold before it's too late.

Author's note: This series is written for adults but appropriate for ages 14 and up.

Very good continuation to the Dragonslayer series

The Stone of Darkness provides somewhat of a buffer after the action in the first two books, however this shouldn’t be interpreted that it isn’t important to the story arc of the Dragonslayer series. Several things are revealed to Astrid as she travels the winter route. These revelations also create a number of questions related to Astrid, which creates the need to adjust her travel plans as she seeks to find answers to the questions. Along the way the Krystr army led by Mandulane plays an important part in her quest. Resa Nelson’s narration of the audiobook version really makes this story come to life.
