A thrilling epic of duty, magic and vampyres set in the Third Age that looks why Lord Drakan invaded Hallowvale. Sure to delight RuneScape fans old and new, this stunning tale shows how and why Hallowvale was taken over.

'I owe you a battle-debt', Rhea admitted, inclining her head and making the sign of the star.

'Something tells me you will have ample opportunity to return it soon enough, Wolf', the winged warrior replied.

The city of Hallowvale has stood for centuries, a realm of light safeguarded by winged protectors and the Everlight. But all that will soon change. As the millennia-spanning God Wars grind towards their brutal conclusion, the armies of darkness descend upon the shining city

vampyres, werewolves, and legions of cruel mortal warriors, led by the cunning and malicious Lord Drakan.

The streets are filled with panic, but Queen Efaritay remains confident. Surely Saradomin, Lord of the Light, will save them? Their military will delay the foe until He arrives, the Queen has a secret weapon at her disposal and, if all else fails, the glow of the Everlight will stave off the blood-drinking vyre?

Can the knightly warriors defending Hallowvale stand firm, or will they be undone not by the wicked efforts of their foe, but by the faltering reign of their queen, Efaritay? And why has Drakan become obsessed with claiming Hallowvale for himself?

Faced with desperate choices, the queen adopts a risky strategy to turn the tide. Her choices will echo for eternity as the fate of Hallowvale teeters on the brink.

Reviews for Runescape: The Fall of Hallowvale

""Drama intrigue and action intermingle to create a pulse pounding fantasy that is hard to put down."" (What You Tolkien About, on Descent: Waiqar) ""Page-turningly addictive... It's quite dark and surprisingly powerful, and a far more emotional story (no spoilers) than you might expect. Very much worth checking out."" (Track of Words, on Descent: The Doom of Fallowhearth) ""Expertly-written and populated with some of the most memorable characters in a fantasy novel that I've read in quite some time, and imbued with a bold, thought-provoking and often surprising narrative, with an emotionally powerful ending that's akin to a fist in the gut."" (SciFi and Fantasy Reviewer, on Descent: The Doom of Fallowhearth)
