Search Worlds Without End

In a world alive with fantasy and myth, far in our past - or perhaps far in our future - the Earth is peopled by elves, demons, wizards, humans, trolls, goblins, dwarves, and the Wee Folk, the Warrows.

The Dark Tide is a tale of three of the Wee Folk - Tuck, Danner, and Patrel - who, in a time of ominous rumor and dark portent, set off for Spindle Ford to stand guard and walk Wolf Patrol on their country's borders.

Far to the north from the barren Wastes of Gron, Evil Modru reaches forth with a spectral Shadowlight that cloaks his vile minions as they ravage southward, a dark tide drowning the land in a holocaust of war, destruction, and death.

Tuck, Danner, and Patrel are swept up in this maelstrom, not realizing that the fate of the world depends on their valor.

Through the mists of the Shadowlight, Modru's plan takes its sinister shape.

The second volume of Dennis L. McKiernan's Iron Tower Trilogy, Shadows of Doom, takes the reader once again to the magical land of Elves, demons, Dwarves, wizards, and Warrows as the perilous adventures of Tuck, Danner, and Patrel continue.

Modru's nefarious Dimmendark cloaks Challerain Keep in what promises to be eternal twilight. Prince Igon has been wounded and Princess Laurelin is a captive of the Evil One - and King Galen, with faithful Tuck at his side, must decide whether to ride north and attempt the rescue of his beloved, or south to muster the Host to battle Modru's ravaging hordes...

This book concludes the Iron Tower trilogy, the final chapter in the story that began with The Dark Tide and continued in Shadows of Doom - the chronicle of the Winter War as seen by a Warrow named Tuckerby Underbank - one of the Wee Folk. This epic struggle occurred in the Fourth Era of Mithgar, when an alliance of Men, Elves, Dwarves, and Warrows battled the malignant hordes of the ancient foe, Modru, the Evil One.

In The Darkest Day, Tuckerby is reunited with Merrilee, Danner, and Patrel. And, led by King Galen, Vidron's Legion of Wellenen, and Ubrik's Vanadurin - along with the Warrow scouts - they begin a desperate ride to Modru's fortress in Gron to attempt to upset the dreadful plan of the Evil One. For the Sun Death is coming, and with it, the Darkest Day...
