The Sword by Deborah Chester*



The Sword is the first book in a trilogy called the Sword, the Ring, and the Chalice. The first part of the story is about the king of Nether, Tobezijan, who is betrayed by his half brother and forced to flee. He hides his children away and escapes with the magical chalice and ring that are his birthright. But trying to flee the horrible spirits that his brother has unleashed, Tobezijan gets stuck in the second world where he can only watch what goes on in the first. Dead, but not really.

The second half of the book is about Tobezijan's son, Dain. Dain doesn't know he is a prince. He only knows that he's half elf and that some people hate him for that. Dain must conquer the foes of his own youth and the foes of his father in order to regain his kingdom. The book is certainly good and worth reading.
