About “Flight of the Nighthawks”

A new threat emerges in Midkemia as a dark force spreads from the criminal underworld to the highest levels of power in ancient Kesh. The Conclave of Shadows, unexpectedly tasked with training two apprentices, must also fight powerful agents of dark magic. The fate of two worlds is at stake. In this first book of a new trilogy, Raymond E. Feist returns to his fantasy world of Midkemia for the most dramatic Riftwar yet—the Darkwar. Sorcerer Pug is awakened by a nightmare that foretells destruction for Midkemia. He calls the Conclave of Shadows together, unaware that his son Magnus has discovered the source of the dream: a beacon that has summoned an alien army to Midkemia. Meanwhile, two boys from Stardock are drawn into a dangerous journey, becoming involved in intrigue and treason. They are sent deep into the Empire of Great Kesh to uncover a dark plot that involves high-ranking nobles and the royal family. They uncover the ancient Brotherhood of Death, the Nighthawks, a clan of assassins. Pug faces his old enemy, the evil wizard Leso Varen, in a battle that will determine the future of Midkemia.
