Bookroo's summary

As winter's longest night looms, Merlin faces his greatest challenge: uniting Fincayra's diverse beings against the evil Rhita Gawr. With only two weeks, he must rally dwarves, canyon eagles, and more, while a mysterious Swordarms hunts the island's children. Can Merlin overcome internal battles to save the children, unify the land, and reclaim the wings that hold the key to their destiny? The fate of Fincayra hangs in the balance as Merlin races against time to forge an unlikely alliance and confront the darkness threatening his world.

From the publisher

Winter’s longest night is rapidly approaching as Merlin faces the most difficult challenge of his life: to unite all the people of Fincayra against an invasion by the evil Rhita Gawr. But how can one man, in two weeks’ time, gather them all–the dwarves, the canyon eagles, the walking trees, the living stones, and more–when none of them will listen? And now comes the mysterious Swordarms, who is hunting down Fincayra’s children. Only if Merlin can unite the battling forces within himself, can he save the children, unify the Fincayrans, and regain the long lost wings that will enable him, and his people, to choose their true destiny.
