Description:

Sparhawk, who is in possession of the magical sapphire that can help him save Queen Ehlana, must first dodge the powers of the evil god Azash

**

Finally the knight Sparhawk had come to possess Bhellion, the legendary jewel of magic. With it, he frees Queen Ehalana from the crystalline cocoon that preserves her life, but Bhellion carries dangers of its own. And now Sparkhawk is being stalked by a dark lurking menace that is only the beginning of his troubles....

Book Three of the ELENIUM is fantasy on a truly epic scale, in which the Pandion Knight Sparhawk must finally use the power of the jewel.

Sparhawk and his allies have recovered the magical sapphire Bhelliom, giving them the power to wake and cure Queen Ehlana.

But while they were away an unholy alliance was brokered between their enemies that threatens the safety of not just Elenia but the entire world.

By returning to save the young queen, Sparhawk risks delivering the Bhelliom into the hands of the enemy.

As battle looms, Sparhawk’s only hope may be to unleash the jewel’s full power. But no one can predict whether this will save the world or destroy it…
