John was your typical average American male with a good but boring job living in the busy city of LA with not much else to claim as his. Until one business trip that took a surprising turn and sent John to meet his destiny. John finds himself upon the shores of a lake and there begins his life changing adventure. An adventure you and I could only begin to imagine in our wildest fantasy. The land is unlike anything he has ever experienced before and its people of races he has never heard of. Fortunately, he meets up with kind Eubert, a Narlin, who steers him in the right direction, where he meets up with Rogart; a huge warrior of the great nation called Werigan, who is not all he seems. Their journey twists and turns in ways John never thought possible, as he and Rogart fight their way through dangerous creatures and dangerous lands. Along the way they encounter Verdinaris the exiled prince of the small magic using people called the Morginarious and Val’laris the beautiful and sassy lady champion archer of the Plains Elves. On reaching Werigan the four are assigned tasks by the king and set out to complete them. John’s task is to find out where he belongs in this world, which leads to discovering who his true family really is and what his true role in life was meant to be and who robbed him of having that life all along. Continia is about to come into a new age…. an age of kings.
This was a great quick read. New author, great lore, and terrific story. Was a great fantasy tale that did not follow the vain of everyone good is going to be okay.
