Two ill-prepared humans endeavor to stop a war in the land of Faerie, in this final adventure in the Spearwielder's Tale trilogy by the New York Times-bestselling author of The Dragon's Dagger.

Much has changed in the four years since Gary Leger came home from his second adventure in the mystical land of Faerie. He married his girlfriend, Diane, but more recently, his father passed away. Overcome by grief, he frequently dreams of returning to Faerie and visiting his three friends, Mickey the leprechaun, Kelsey the elf, and Geno the dwarf. And right now, they would love to see him . . .

The wicked King Kinnemore and his bloodthirsty son, Geldion, are leading an army of thousands to take over Faerie, and the threat of the evil witch still looms across the land. As war breaks out, Gary is needed to don the enchanted armor and wield the magic spear once more. And when he arrives in Faerie, Diane is by his side.

Now Gary and his companions must bring their skills together to strike evil from the land and restore peace to Faerie once and for all . . .
