Publisher's Synopsis
To this day, I see it in my nightmares - the decrepit amalgamation of stone and metal looming in the middle of the barren waste. The place that was supposed to be my tomb.
Elian's carefree childhood ends after his older brother gets recruited to serve in one of the five watchtowers overlooking the hostile lands.
A grim realization dawns on him of the perils the last human Kingdom of Esfar has to face.
The wild hillfolk of the west, the ferocious beasts from the east, and the vast waters of the sea in the south that no ship could ever pass.
However, these threats pale compared to the evil looming in the north.
From the barren wastes of black rock called the Dismal Hallows, armies of demons march against the Kingdom's forces commanded by the mysterious Dark Lord.
Will a hero arise to fight against these insurmountable foes, or will the last human Kingdom perish, sending the world into eternal night?
This novel is perfect for fans of gritty medieval dark fantasy, coming-of-age stories, and character studies.
