Five hundred years ago, a clan of rebels was banished to the bottom of the enchanted world of Aeronne; ever since, these Bottom Dwellers have sought revenge, and now they are waging all-out war on the rest of humanity. Their deadly 'contramagic' beams destroy buildings and attack naval airships, and their demonic drumming brings terrible storms and disrupts the magic of the people and dragons Above. The attack of their full contramagic power will create a magical armageddon. In an effort to prevent further death, Captain Stephano de Guichen leads the Dragon Brigade, taking the fight to the Bottom. Only the Dragon Brigade can prevent an endless dark age. Their epic battle will test the mettle of those thrown into the breach, and determine the fate of this magical world.

      Weis and Krammes wind up their Dragon Brigade high fantasy trilogy (after Shadow Raiders and Storm Riders) with this inflated YA-style concluding clash of good versus evil in a complicated sociopolitical setting. Former Dragon Brigade leader Stephano de Guichen and Sir Henry Wallace, representing their warring nations of Rosia and Freya respectively and each supported by a rich cast of colorful characters, reluctantly agree that their countries must unite against a common threat, the Bottom Dwellers. Thrust into the depths of the planet five centuries earlier by misguided and malignant religious forces, the Bottom Dwellers are driven by fanatical leaders, who use fearful contramagic reinforced by “blood magic” of torture and human sacrifice, to invade Rosia and Freya. This hefty excursion into a complex world of spymasters, derring-do captains, sorceresses, maturing heroes and heroines, and benevolent and sinister monks and nuns often reads like a hasty transcript of an interminably breathless role-playing game, but it fitfully comes to life with the help of enormous dragons, who provide an engaging extra dimension to this predictable would-be epic.

      The Bottom Dwellers have finally decided that 500 years of banishment is enough, and it's time to extract revenge. As this complex tale of magic and "contra-magic" unfolds, narrator Kirby Heyborne's relaxed manner and steady pace encourage listeners to stay the course in this long final book in the Dragon Brigade trilogy. In dialogue, he draws out the relationships between the principals through tone and timing as warring factions agree to cooperate. He adeptly brings to life a wide range of characters, including heretic priests, professional soldiers, dragons who are convinced to join the struggle, and leaders of the church who must decide whether or not to delve into secrets others would prefer did not become known.
