The fascinating universe of "Forgotten Kingdoms" shines with new facets in the novels of the glorious successor of the case Robert Salvatore - Paul Kemp! To do this, Erevis gave up his essence and became a Shade - a creature inextricably linked with the shadows .. He did this to help his friends, but it did not make it easier to transform and then painfully adapt to the new possibilities. However, emotional anguish did not prevent him from teleporting himself from comrades to Shadow Level to begin the pursuit of the slaads who stole from the Temple of Shadows an invaluable artifact necessary to their owner - the Wanderer. The chase led Erevis to the Underground, in the town of Skallport, where the slaads intend to pocket another useful artifact. The pursuers, of course, catch up with the thieves, but Erevisie is waiting for an unpleasant discovery.
