"Was he a god's keeper? Or was he in a god's keeping? Korvas didn't know the answer, and wasn't sure it really mattered. All he did know was that from the moment he had accepted the gift of the god box and the obligation to fulfill its previous owner's final mission, he'd been plunged into more peril than a poor, dishonest rug merchant deserved. For the small wooden box, with its drawers which sometimes held nothing and at other times contained unimaginable wealth or notes of "sage" advice, was leading Korvas on a roundabout rendezvous with destiny. To help him on his way, it gave him what he needed, which, somehow, was never what he wanted. And always Korvas found himself in deeper trouble as the box made him play his role in the ancient prophecy of the Hero and the Destroyer, a prophecy which when it was fulfilled would prove either the destruction of the world or its salvation!"--Page [4] of cover
