Description

The Grey Wardens Return to Ferelden, Bringing a Dire Warning and a Desperate Plea for Aid

In Dragon Age: The Calling, the thrilling prequel to the hit role-playing video game Dragon Age: Origins, King Maric of Ferelden faces a grave threat. After two centuries in exile, he has finally allowed the legendary Grey Wardens to return, but they bring alarming news: one of their own has escaped into the Deep Roads and joined forces with the monstrous darkspawn, the Wardens' ancient enemy.

The Grey Wardens need Maric's help, and he reluctantly agrees to guide them through the treacherous passages he traveled years before. As they venture forth, pursuing a deadly secret that threatens to destroy both the Wardens and the Kingdom above, Maric must confront the past and safeguard the future of his realm.

Penned by David Gaider, lead writer of the Dragon Age series, this gripping tale of duty, sacrifice, and the power of choice is a must-read for fans of epic fantasy, high adventure, and the rich, immersive world of Thedas.

At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

    I really enjoyed reading this book. Considering I finally played through & completed the game, it was great to get some good back story on Duncan! Love the tie-in at the end, can't say more tho or I'd give away spoilers! The story really pulled me in & kept me up hours later than I meant to read for! Definitely recommend for anybody who enjoyed the game, or the genre!
