Sir Tristan Hiregaard is a nobleman in the dark land of Nova Vaasa,
to all outward appearances a kind lord who would never harm anyone.
Yet, Sir Tristan has a sinister secret, one that even he does not understand.....
At times the nobleman transforms into a brutish creature named
Malken, a man-beast who finds no act too base, just as long as it extends
the killing grip of his vast criminal empire. No one is safe from
Malkan, and it seems that no one can break his stranglehold on Nova Vaasa-until
Tristan himself takes on a quest to destroy his evil side.

Well, if you're into the old Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde formula, this
book is for you. A Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde story set in a different
time and a different place, and with two different main characters.
Also Tristan's double personality results from magic rather than science.
This book is above average, but certainly not outstanding. There
are many other books out there more exciting than this one that I would
read before this one.
