This is an amazing adventure/ fantasy story. I found it a little hard to get into at the beginning because of all the characters and the places and how each clan links to the next but i am very glad i stuck with it.

One ranger sets out to change all that. To right the wrongs that have been commited by his ancestors and to save his clans way of life.
