Only one thing keeps an ancient evil at bay. And now that thing is gone... Through the power of the Prison Stone, the summoners succeeded in banishing the Dark Lord from the Universe. Lost for a thousand years, the Stone has once more been found... The life of a gentle haffolk is thrown into chaos when he is chosen to carry the Stone from one dwarf world to another. But when the Stone is stolen, his every hope is dashed... An angry prince, humiliated by this father the king, raises his hammer over the Stone, intent on releasing the ultimate power-a power that will prove his father wrong, a power that will raise him to the place of honor he deserves, a power that will mean the doom of every living thing... The Prison Stone is the first book in the Red Horn saga, an epic fantasy that skillfully blends high fantasy, steampunk, Cthulu, and space opera. The magic is unpredictable, the spaceships run on coal, and no power known to dwarf, elf, or man can stop the carnage. Only a hero small enough can save us now.
