Traces of Magic: Book IV: Healing Down to the Roots - Paperback

by Patrick J. Dolan (Author)

The poisonous ideas spread by the Assassins' Guild start to infect even the paladins, but this does not interfere with the conversion of many (but not all) of the druids to Christianity. Incorporating some junior magic users at part of the druid schools in the Valley upsets some city folks - including Madam Nadine, who attacks their compound and puts out a "gift" contract on one of the senior magic users. In her attempt to cover up that crime, she seduces someone to activate the weather control spell in the "fishbowl," with effects more devastating than those of the Death Monster. Some of the same characters who helped fight that Death Monster now face the need to destroy the fishbowl-but they have to do so within Madam Nadine's quarters. What affect that attempt might have on the future of that whole area concludes the struggle and the story of the pre-history of Kentucky.
