The Calling. Sooner or later, it claimed every powerful warlock ... a growing magical compulsion to go north to the mysterious land of Aldagmor that nothing could stop. None ever returned. Hanner the Warlock knew his days were numbered. The Calling pulled at him ceaselessly now, and his ability to resist had begun to crumble. So he determined to find a place where the Calling couldn't reach him ... another world, located through a magic tapestry. Every warlock knew that the farther he was from Aldagmor, the weaker the Calling was - and the weaker his magic was, as well, but that was only a secondary consideration. That weakening had given Hanner the idea to find, or make, a place so distant from Aldagmor that the Call couldn't reach it at all. Unfortunately, the Call took him anyway. And that's where his story really gets interesting. Because the Calling wasn't what everyone believed. And when the warlocks who had been Called over the decades suddenly woke up again at the object doing the calling - and found themselves without their powers - their world may never be the same!… (mais)

This is another fine book in the Ethshar series by Lawrence Watt-Evans and completes story lines all the way from the third book in the series The Unwilling Warlord. Also, completed is the story line from the eighth book Night of Madness. The main plot revolves around the eventual release of all the Warlocks who surrendered to the call of the mysterious being that was also the source of their magic.

All Warlocks were now free of the calling and had been preserved in health for as much as 34 years. So now they were trapped in uninhabited wilderness with no way how. While back in their homelands, chaos brews when there are hundreds of former Warlocks now unable to earn their livings.

There is one Warlock left in the world. Emperor Vond who had managed to make use of a second power source for his magic when he had conquered several of the small kingdoms before the calling took him. He is not particularly evil but he lacks the empathy to use his un-checked powers wisely. Now the world of Ethshar must embrace nearly 15000 powerless Warlocks and survive the whims of a dangerously flawed all powerful Warlock. The journey for both is long and arduous. (
