Halia has been taking care of herself since she was orphaned twenty years ago. She has been trained as a thief and uses those skills to survive against magical creatures and ruthless enemies inhabiting her world. One night, as Halia is walking through the woods, she happens upon the ruins of an ancient castle. Within the castle, she discovers an unusual treasure, hidden and well-protected. Instead of gold or jewels, it is a small, crystal sphere. After finding her way back to civilization, Halia meets a wizard named Minaras. She is hopeful that this brilliant wizard and his apprentices can help her unlock the secrets of the sphere. But the information that could solve the mystery has been stolen from Minaras's personal library; the missing page of an ancient Arboreal text is only the first in a long string of clues. Halia soon connects with two other adventurers who own similar spheres: the powerful sorcerer, Ahriman, and Xarun, a brutish warrior. Together, they journey across the land and through magical worlds as they hunt for answers about the spheres. One of the travelers, however, has a secret agenda-one that could prove deadly for all.

Throughout the centuries of its existence, Anglo-Saxon society was highly, if not widely, literate: it was a society the functioning of which depended very largely on the written word. All the essays in this volume throw light on the literacy of Anglo-Saxon England, from the writs which were used as the instruments of government from the eleventh century onwards, to the normative texts which regulated the lives of Benedictine monks and nuns, to the runes stamped on an Anglo-Saxon coin, to the pseudorunes which deliver the coded message of a man to his lover in a well-known Old English poem, to the mysterious writing on an amulet which was apparently worn by a religious for a personal protection from the devil. The usual comprehensive bibliography of the previous year's publications in all branches of Anglo-Saxon studies rounds off the book.
