About the book: 2008 / Jerin, nicknamed the Fox, dreamed of becoming a sorcerer. The path of a warrior did not appeal to him, and he preferred a cheerful life on the shores of the warm Inland Sea, in the capital of the Elabon Empire, to the harsh everyday life of the northern wilderness. But the gods are treacherous. His father and older brother die in a skirmish with wild tribes, and Jerin overnight becomes the owner of a border castle and the head of a military camp. The dream of a lifetime collapsed, but it was not for nothing that the Fox got his nickname.
