The events in this game are told in the book Krondor: The Betrayal.

Return to Krondor

Sierra On-Line once again releases another computer game set in Raymond E. Feist's Midkemia. This game occurs a few years after the previous game, Betrayal at Krondor. It was released in 1998 and the events in this game are told in the book Krondor: Tear of the Gods.
