It is the last days of the great Nephite nation as they battle for survival against their sworn enemies, the Lamanites. As the conflict unfolds upon this ancient American landscape, sides are taken and weapons are drawn. Stand alongside daring heroes with swords bared against sinister villains, never knowing which will fall-Captain Amaron and his Ten Scouts, Zelph the White Lamanite, or Anathoth the Lamanite general, agonizingly loyal to the despised King of Tullan-all must face the chillingly evil Gadianton Master Akish-Antum and his many followers. Witness the plans of mighty kings and lowly thieves. Follow the murderous intrigue of the Gadianton grand master and his wife, the beautiful sorceress Lilith. See the dreams of Bethia, a prophet's daughter, as she leaves home seeking independence, only to find confusion and wickedness in a land of war.
