In the wake of Araluen's uneasy truce with the raiding
Skandians comes word that the Skandian leader has been captured by a dangerous
desert tribe. The Rangers - and Will - are sent to free him. But the desert is
like nothing these warriors have seen before. Strangers in a strange land, they
are brutalized by sandstorms, beaten by the unrelenting heat, tricked by one
tribe that plays by its own rules, and surprisingly befriended by another. Like
a desert mirage, nothing is as it seems. Yet one thing is constant: the bravery
of the Rangers.

Another reread this one is still very good after multiple times reading it. I like Flanagan's style of writing and his image of medieval Europe, through a modern filter.
