"Devils & Wizards" an epic medieval fantasy novel for adults 18 and up.
In a kingdom where magic is forbidden and sorcerers are burned for sport; young Randall should know better than to practice spells. When he is caught in the bed of his corrupt employer's daughter, he finds himself on the run — straight into the sewers and the claws of a gang of wererats.
They’re thieves, scavengers, survivors… and his only chance at staying alive. Among them is a sharp-tongued urchin, and her swashbuckling protector. The wererat gang are embroiled in a battle against the city guard, led by a disgraced captain, and a female holy warrior. — until a darker power forces them all onto the same side.
As an unseen evil creeps across the kingdom, corrupting everything it touches, Randall and his unlikely companions must travel on an epic journey in search of the truth. They must save themselves, as well as the entire Kingdom from dark forces of evil. Magic may be forbidden — but it might be the only thing that can save them all.
This book grabbed me from the first chapter and took me on an epic adventure where the characters are thrown together by circumstance and find themselves in a fight of good(or mostly good) versus evil. Dramatically woven story lines with very interesting characters, humor and danger abound in this debut novel by Paul Wolff. I can't wait to see what happens next.
