A sudden attack by Wulf, a cunning and ruthless lord of Dunlending seeking vengeance for his father’s death, forces Helm and his people to make a brave final stand in the ancient fortress of Hornburg, a mighty fortress that would later be known as Helm’s Deep. In an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, Helm’s daughter, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their utter destruction.
