The Flight: Chronicles of Utharia

by Charles Jaegermann

In a land of demons, magic, and elves, Blackbird The Bard must seek out a traitorous duke. A duke who is so hellbent on revenge that he would trade his own soul for vengeance upon kingdom and king. As trusted advisor and cousin to the king, Blackbird is charged with hunting down the duke and returning him to Utharia to face the crown's justice.
But the persuit is far from simple when Blackbird is captured and caged by the beautiful and deadly Zulah. Blackbird recognizes a warrior under Zulah's command who calls himself Doen Zah. Why is Zah so familiar? Is Zulah friend or foe? And what will become of Blackbird's home and his royal cousin? Accompany Blackbird on a stirring adventure of love, loss, and redemption as he discovers answers that even he struggles to comprehend.

Full disclosure, I beta-read the book, so it was not the final edited version. That said, "traditional fantasy" and "wild romp" are apt descriptors, and the author has taken great care to build a world of diverse characters.
