If you like action and epic battles, if you are a fan of George R.R. Martin or Tolkien, you will love this book.

For unknown reasons, the Old Gods cannot interfere in the world that they’ve created. For a thousand years, the Lords of Shadow have been building their forces to invade Xoran and kill everything that walks, crawls, or flies. The Old Gods can not, or will not intercede, so it will take the combined armies of the humans, and their non-human allies to defeat the shadow lords.

The Coven – dark mages form a coven to satisfy their own wants, but they are forced by the dark lord to do their bidding. They team with the cursed one and act as agents of Lord Callen.

The Champions – For the first time, all six of the Blades of the Colossus are together in the same place. The champions must work together to defeat an evil of titanic proportions.

Dragons – The Lords of Shadow leverage their power to support their legions of shock troops and establish air superiority.

Jorn Anant – The Mage – Jorn grows even more powerful in his mastery of magic. Is he a demigod?
