Sowing the wind..Michael Ormson--called the Prophet--revolutionized Icewar, and his ramfleets destroyed armadas that had terrorized the frozen seas for two thousand years. The Cornathian Brotherhoods knew they must act soon against Michael, for his forces daily grew more powerful, and the enlightened message his agents spread could only lead to revolt. But Ormson lived in an impregnable fortress on a small island guarded by awesome fleets, fanatical armies, and diabolical ice traps. Somehow the brotherhoods would have to lure him onto the ice--then make him mad enough to chase them.
