Feist burst onto the fantasy scene in 1982 with his first novel, Magician, an enthralling tale about an orphan boy named Pug who travels to the mystical Kingdom of the Isles to study wizardry under the Master Magician Kulgan. Magician introduced one of the most enthralling fantasy worlds in the genre and marked the beginning of an enduring, bestselling career. Today, after nearly 30 years and more than two dozen novels, Feist�s Riftwar Cycle is regarded as one of the most beloved, iconic, and enduring sagas in modern fantasy.

This new entry to the epic, A Kingdom Beseiged, ushers in the most fearsome threat the kingdom has yet facecd�the Chaoswar�a major cataclysm involving a magic apocalypse that will force Pug, now the most powerful magician in all of Midekemia, to question everything he�s ever held true and dear . . . including the loyalty and desires of his beloved son Magnus.
