The Tower tells about Niall's capture by the spiders, and his transportation to one of their cities - an old ruin left behind by the men who used to rule the land, with a mysterious and indestructible tower of white stone. He gains entry to the tower, and learns much more than he imagined about his ancestors. Armed with this knowledge he's determined to make things right once again.
Niall develops well as a character in this book. He's set up as a cut-above-the-rest prodigy type, but he still has human moments. His discovery of new things about his society and his world lead to some interesting ideas, and he acts on these pretty responsibly.
