"[Vazkor] is the story of a man learning about who he is and why he's the way he is with powers that he cannot even begin to understand. He can heal fast and he can shoot white power from his eyes but he doesn't know why. In fact, he attributes these powers to his father - whose origins he only learns after the third way mark. Vazkor is a middle book between the mother's story [The birthgrave] and the story of the confrontation between mother and son [Quest for the white witch], but it stands well on its own"--Amazon.
