Book One
All journeys have a beginning. All heroes have an origin. No one can succeed alone.
On the southern edges of continental Ulandir an ancient evil roils against its bonds. Shadows creep where the light once held sway and creatures, both freshly felled and long since dead, now walk once more in thrall. Yet, this is only the preamble to Térrtha’s end times. There is still a chance that catastrophe can be avoided, slim though it be.
Touched by fate, and united through circumstance, a quintet of disparate individuals find themselves at the heart of this nightmare. Although each of these five are skilled in their own way, questions remain. Can they become more than what they are now? Will they surpass their limitations and overcome their demons? How can mere mortals defeat something that even the gods fear?
Heroes of Thered’s Field is the first book in an epic dark fantasy series replete with action and abounding with grit.
“I found this work to be captivating, as the story goes along it draws you in to the plight of its characters within this enthralling fantasy world. It left me wanting more. ”
Book Two
The Shadow remembers what it was to be free. It longs for that feeling once more.
At the behest of King John, the freshly dubbed Heroes of Thered’s Field have travelled to the Estmirian capital, Evonium. From the very moment they entered that ancient city, they knew. Something was wrong. Very wrong. A foul taste on the wind. An ill feeling that cannot be explained. The unease of never feeling truly alone. Small things. Perhaps. But they know first-hand what horrors have birthed these sensations. The Shadow.
Aside from what the King had told them, of murderous plots and assassins with black flame for eyes, they know nothing of the puppeteer that lurks in darkness. That is whom they must find. That is whom they must slay. The fate of Térrtha depends on it. The Shadow must be stopped.
Shades of the Past is the second book in an epic fantasy series dripping with darkness, yet full of heart.
